Description

Start at the Eastlake Heritage trail parking lot off of 128th and York Street. From there head South west on the Signal Ditch Trail. Cross 128th and keep going Southbound. The trail cross at Washington Street and then take the sidewalk south about 20 feet and then turn Westbound. The trail dies off next to a hotel, take the sidewalk west then turn south and ride on the large sidewalk until you cross 120th.

The sidewalk continues through Webster Lake Park. At the South edge of park take the trail along the sidewalk. The trail continues on and eventually goes under I-25. Keep on the trail until you then cross Huron. The vegetation and the views start to get better the further west you go.
