Ready to get rugged? Holland Trail is one of the Go Wild hikes in Wild DFW. The access from Elam Rd to the Trinity River can be quite overgrown, but we'll bring loppers. Then there's a little bushwhacking to find a small riverside trail that leads to the end of the Holland Trail. This equestrian trail emanates from the Texas Horse Ranch and ends at a lovely large forest pond. From there it's usually wide and mowed. But if it's not too wet we'll take a narrow footpath to the Trinity-White Rock Creek confluence—the heart of the Great Trinity Forest. Then we'll continue on the spur, reconnect with the Holland Trail and take it to Bryan's Slough.
Wear long pants, long-sleeved shirt or overshirt, and very sturdy hiking boots. A change of shoes and a towel for the rid home is advised. Use lots of bug repellent. Bring a compass and make sure your phone is fully charged with a back-up battery. Best to have a GPS system like Gaia on your phone or at the very least Google Maps.
