Chapparral Rails to Trails Museum

Roxton, United States of America

The Northeast Texas Trail (NETT) is a 130+-mile multi-use trail along the route, following alongside U.S. Highway 82 and Texas State Highway 34. The trail connects nineteen cities spread over seven counties, stretching from the edge of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex to the Texarkana metropolitan ar

ea along the Arkansas border. The Northeast Texas Trail is the longest hike/bike and equestrian trail in Texas and the fourth longest in the United States. As of 2026, the trail exists in a patchwork of completed, paved sections and highly rugged, unimproved stretches. The trail is designed to provide access for hikers, mountain bicyclists, and in some sections, equestrians. It is accessible by trailheads running through cities along the trail, while the trail will extend into more remote areas between the cities. The first trail section, the 2.36 multi-use portion "Trail de Paris" was dedicated in 2004. Scattered along the trail are several creeks and over one hundred rail bridges, including a crossing of the Sulphur River and many branches of Kickapoo Creek.
