Arcade-Cripple Creek Trail links Citrus Heights parks and schools
Citrus Heights' Arcade-Cripple Creek Trail is a 3.45-mile multi-use trail connecting neighborhoods with parks, schools, Sunrise MarketPlace, crossings, lighting, and landscaping.
Arcade-Cripple Creek Trail is a practical Citrus Heights route because it connects daily places as well as scenery. It runs about 3.45 miles and is set up for shared use.
The route starts at Arcade Creek Park Preserve and ends at Wachtel Way. It connects neighborhoods to eight parks, several schools, and Sunrise MarketPlace. The project also includes crossings, lighting, drainage work, traffic signal changes, and landscaping.
The city celebrated the trail opening in 2024, so use current access language rather than old construction wording. Check the city page for maps and entry points before choosing a route.
