The Campion Trail in Irving, Texas, offers a wonderfully diverse road cycling experience, winding through greenbelts along the Elm Fork and West Fork of the Trinity River. You'll enjoy expansive river views, natural wetlands, and open fields, interspersed with more urban sections that take you through the Las Colinas business district. The route is predominantly flat with wide, paved concrete pathways, ensuring a comfortable and smooth ride for cyclists of all abilities.
This easy 17.3-mile (27.8 km) route features a minimal 133 feet (41 metres) of elevation gain, making it achievable in about 1 hour and 24 minutes. You'll find numerous access points and parking lots along the trail, along with amenities like drinking fountains, restrooms, and picnic areas. It's a multi-use pathway, so expect to share the space with walkers and runners, but there's ample room for everyone.
Beyond the scenic and urban views, the Campion Trail holds a unique historical secret: the southern portion passes by the site of the former Iron Bridge at Eagle Ford Crossing, famously associated with Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. This trail is also part of a larger regional effort to connect trail systems across several Texas cities, highlighting its importance as both a recreational and commuting route.
