The East Franklin, Poppy Ridge, and Laguna Ridge neighborhoods along Franklin Creek are home to the Franklin Creek Trail - one of the City's newer trails that boasts some of the highest use and rich connections to other community amenities.
The five and a half-mile-long, paved, off-street trail follows the flow of Franklin Creek - once known as the 'Shed B Channel' - connecting residents and users to everything around Whitelock Parkway and Franklin Boulevard including all that the East Franklin, Poppy Ridge, and Laguna Ridge neighborhoods have to offer. The trail is also perfect for exercise or recreation, offering the opportunity for everything from a bike ride or jog to a casual stroll or walking the dog.
Outlets along the trail provide direct or close access to nearly a dozen parks, schools, and popular shopping destinations, including Kohl's, Raley's, Nugget Market, Trader Joe's, Starbucks, and dozens of local businesses and restaurants.
