Marion Sansom Park

"This is a really nice park to hike at. The trails here are very densely packed which on the upside means that there are a lot of trail miles crammed into a fairly small area. On the downside it means that you can see and hear other hikers a good amount of the time. There are some nice flat areas to hike as well as some steep hills and beautiful water features. My only real complaint is that because of the tight twists and turns I completely lost my sense of direction and with all the little shortcuts running between the trails it's easy to end up walking around in circles. Plenty of beautiful "

"Beautiful park with some paved walkways as well as trail hiking. Hiked to see the waterfall and was kind of disappointed to be honest. Didn’t seem worth it to me but I’m still glad I hiked it. Found a couple things on the trail I don’t normally see… one was a car seat… a full seat from a car… it was weird. The other thing was an inspiration mailbox to put written inspiration messages in it for people on the trail to see. That was pretty cool. Fall foliage was beautiful."

"I love this place for a unique hike for DFW area. For sure you won't get miles in (unless you want to follow MTB trails), but still very unique hiking within DFW and worth exploring. Head down the the waterfall and you'll notice the rocky terrain down there is packed with shells. Apparently 85-110 million years ago there was a sea that split North America into to pieces. And this area was covered with that sea. So very cool to be 5 mile drive from the gulf, but still be able to see some sea shells. And that thick rock with the sea-shells is the same rock that goes under the waterfall."
