I rate it this high because it is one of the few trails in Houston. Very easy and fun to run...all the time.
It's tricky to navigate, but once you get it, it's great. Paved path is great. It's hard because it's mostly in the sun. There are restrooms that you can use. They are in the blue lagoon building accessable from the outside in the back. Restrooms were clean.
This is an easy trail with lots of room for walkers, runners, bikes, and strollers. There is art, nice scenery, and points of interest along the way for anyone who likes to be outdoors.
I run this loop at least once a week. Easy to run, walk, or bike. There's plenty of places to start or bridges to cross, so it's easy to switch it up and keep from getting bored.
