Simply a Fantastic park that runs about 9 miles through town from north to south. It replaced an old rail road line that was in its place. Prior to the rail road being laid down it actually followed a historic trail that was once famously used by both American and Mexican Soldiers during the American/Mexican War over escalating conflicts over Texas.Today, the park cuts through a range of our beautiful local ecosystem of resacas, thorn brush, grass fields, and chaparral that exists all along the trail. Whether your there to beak sweat or to do some nature watching, youll be in for a treat. The trail is lined with local plants, birds, and aquatic life! Additionally, the trails are loaded with info stations that display photos and information related to the history, flora, and fauna that can be found all along this historic trail.Youll be surprised how quick youll be slicing through town utilizing the old direct rail path! Youll find trail users of all ages. The trail is equipped with lights that keep the trail lit up all night. All major intersections are lined with traffic lights to cater to the safety of trail users. And rest assured that youll find plenty of drinking fountains to keep you hydrated. Weather your in town visiting or your from town, this trail is well worth a visit!
Great walking park
Nice and relaxing place for an evening walk or workout
I love walking along this trail. I do it at different times of the day. It is safe and relatively well lit. But like anywhere, apply your sunscreen/insect repellant, depending on the time of day and take pepper spray. Be safe and enjoy the view and the screeching parrots.
7 miles from 7th St and Tryler to Palo Alto real good trail
Its good for running and getting out there because of the dynamic view of the resaca nice place
Awesome and friendly place to do my workouts and literally perfect for runing and cycling.
Its very pretty. The bike road is convenient. Everywhere you look is beautiful. The battlefield trail is the best part of Brownsville.
Love this place always clean well kept good lighting very attractive
