The Highland Park Trail Head is the northernmost trail head on the 25.5 mile long Trinity Trail. The trail head features a large parking lot, bathroom, water, covered picnic table and white pipe perimeter fence. About the Trail from Highland Park: Riders have the choice riding on trails in two directions from the Highland Park Trail head. The north trail is primarily in the woods. The south trail winds through a combination of woods and open country. North Trail: If riders select the north trail, they ride toward the Sycamore Loop which has been described by many as one of the most beautiful sections of the trail. Watering horses at Highland Park Trail Head Watering horses at Highland Park Trail Head This wooded path through the forest winds along Wilson Creek and passes by a number of large sycamore trees including the official largest Sycamore Tree in north Texas. The tree has been estimated to be over 200 years old. For information about the tree, see our article and video on the Giant Sycamore tree Near the location of the Giant Sycamore there are hitching posts (donated by TTPA member Frank Hall) and a picnic area that is a popular gathering area for riders. Please use the hitching posts and do not tie horses to trees. This section of the trail has more wildlife than other sections including feral hogs, some deer, coyotes, rabbits, armadillos and other creatures native to Texas. There have even been occasional sightings of mountain lion in the area so always stay alert on this section of the trail. South Trail: The trail south from the Highland Park Trail Head is a pleasant ride through the native Texan countryside. The trail passes through several wooded areas and open fields that are popular canter spots. The trail heads eventually to the Brockdale Trail Head. Midway along the trail is a popular watering and gathering spot that offers hitching posts, picnic tables and easy access to the White Rock Creek for watering horses. The trail does cross White Rock Creek at this picnic spot, water is normally about 6 inches deep or less at the crossing.
