Dog Adoptions on the Trail this Saturday

Come by on Saturday to meet a new best friend!

Why adopt a DAS dog?  All adoptions are free, your pet comes with a free microchip, which serves as your Dallas pet registration, and all dog adoptions come with a free week of training with GoodPup.

New Safety Signs on the Trail

Have you noticed the new merging and speed limit signs on the Trail? It's important to proceed with caution at locations where cyclists and pedestrians meet and share the Trail together, and cyclists must always maintain speed at 10 mph or less.

Spring is on its Way

Friends of the Katy Trail is gearing up for a spring season of fresh beginnings and growth. Look for new Trail plantings, blooming flowers, and fresh mulch enhancing the Trail.

The vibrant blooms of flowering quince shrubs are among the first to grace the Trail in late winter and early spring, with showy flowers loved by Trailgoers, hummingbirds, and bees.
