Pickup Truck rental in Dallas

Bask in 633 acres of glorious nature, with miles of picturesque hiking trails. Smell the heavenly flora and take in views of the blue Texan skies bouncing off the water’s surface.  It’s around a half-hour drive from the bustling metropolis of downtown Dallas, along 16 miles of mostly straight road heading south. Throw camping and fishing equipment in the back and make the most of the great outdoors. If you rent a truck, it means you can avoid Dallas public transport and oversee your own schedule – with Hertz, you’re the captain.

If you want a shorter stroll, much closer to the heart of the city (2 miles), Turtle Creek Park is a good option. It offers the perfect balance of being near downtown while still providing a green escape. So, it’s ideal if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the inner areas without having to go too far out. There are plenty of parking spaces dotted nearby, like over by Reverchon Park. Simply park up to enjoy urban waterfalls, lush trees, and generally somewhere to stretch your legs and get some fresh air in aesthetic surroundings.

Explore 6,000 acres of one of the largest urban hardwood forests in America at the Great Trinity Forest. There are too many species of plants and wildlife here to count. And best of all, it’s very close to central Dallas – just a 10-mile drive that usually takes 15 minutes. It’s a hiker’s paradise, so be sure to bring your walking shoes and plenty of liquids and snacks to refresh. You’re likely to encounter some of the local inhabitants here: deer, coyotes and ample species of birds. The seasonal wildflowers and wetlands also make it a trip that’s sure to take your breath away. If you’re a lover of all things outdoors, be sure to add it to your trip to-do list.
