Hutto’s trail information describes Cottonwood Trail as a roughly 3.2-mile connection beginning at Fritz Park and linking with Creekside Park. Later extensions added pedestrian routes along Carl Stern Boulevard and Mager Lane.

The city also identifies the corridor as a Purple Heart Trail, recognizing military members wounded or killed in service. That gives the route a commemorative role alongside its everyday use for walking and cycling.

Use the trail map to select a segment that fits your time and check current access notices at the parks. A route’s total listed length is not a requirement to travel all of it. Share your starting point with anyone joining you and allow space for other trail users.
