Big Lake Park

Highlight • Lake

Big Lake Park is a pleasant, small city park along the Chisholm Trail in Plano Texas. Big Lake also borders the park where you can see paddle-boarders and kayakers on hot days. This is a great place to pause and sip some water on one of the many benches before continuing on your ride down the Chisholm Trail.

Bluebonnet Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Bluebonnet Trail is part of Plano's trail system, stretching over 10 miles with a brief break near Preston Rd. It connects various trails, including the Blue Ridge Park, Preston Ridge, Shady Brook, and Chisholm Trails. Though it runs parallel to busy streets and powerlines, the trail becomes picturesque in spring with blooming wildflowers. The well-maintained concrete path offers a smooth ride, and the surrounding grass is regularly mowed, making it a pleasant route for cyclists.
