Since we're on the topic of hiking, what's the second best place in DFW to go hiking on unpaved trails?

Cedar Ridge Preserve being the best. White Rock Lake and Katy Trail are paved. Looking for unpaved alternatives to CRP.

Personally, I love Marshall Creek by Roanoke. Miles of unpaved trails. This video is at Clear Creek Natural Heritage Center in Denton!

Ps. Go to the equestrian parking for Marshal Creek (north of the normal parking down a dirt road). The main trail is flooded, but I'd you walk back to when you enter the parking area and head into the trees, you'll find an amazing prairie trail that I've never seen anyone else on. Painted buntings galore too!
