    Pillot Gulley Walking Trail

    Pillot Gulley Walking Trail

    3.8 mi

    I visited this nice walking trail that parallels Pillot Gulley near Louetta. The trail is 1.9 miles…read morein length and paved. It has a pedestrian bridge at one end to cross the water. At the other end at Louetta you have to cross the auto bridge on Louetta to get to the other side if you are going to make the 1.9 mile loop. Along the trail there are informational plaques that depict what kind of flora can be found here. Also every 250 yards or so there are sitting benches that are semi covered from the sun but not the rain. Best place to park your car if you drive here is on Rodgers by the swimming pool. My score of 3 means this trail is A-OK for you taking a walk or letting your dog walk you...it is a nice place to visit.

    Pillot Gully trail is exactly what you need in a walk/run trail but no more. It is paved and the…read moresurrounding nature is manicured - so no rolling ankles or dodging branches. There are amenities like benches, trash cans, bike racks, and doggie waste stations. There is a crossover bridge on the north side but not on the south side. You could cross on Louetta where there is a short sidewalk, but I chose to turn around. The trail is short, a little under 2 miles, so not ideal for training. It does not appear to be lit, so I do not recommend coming here after dark. The trail crosses traffic once on Rodgers Rd, and traffic doesn't stop, so be mindful when crossing the street. There isn't an obvious place to park, so I parked by the pool on Rodgers Rd this time. I will try by the shops on Louetta next time. There is a neighborhood nearby where you could probably park on the street. I don't know much about the neighborhood, so I'll probably stick to the pool parking. Overall, this is a convenient place to run or walk when there aren't a lot of options around. I'll be back, but I will also keep looking. I also recommend Collins Park and Meyer Park for running/walking, if anyone else is looking for good places like I am! The lack of sidewalks and shoulders makes running a bit difficult around here, so I'm always grateful for a trail.
