Welcome to Omaha/Bellevue: Heartland Hills Park in Bellevue

 The Heartland Hills Park is mostly a trail around a small lake.  It does have a icnic gazebo and a paved trail, but no other amenities.  It is just south of Lewis and Clark Middle School in southwest Bellevue, off of 36th.

welcome to Omaha/Bellevue: Keystone Trail Bellevue and Omaha

 Keystone trail follows the Papillion Creek from Bellevue to Omaha.  Locally thre may be different names, but together it is the Keystone Trail.  I have visited off of 48th and Cornhusker; and previously off of 36th at the Twin Creeks Trailhead.

These pictures are from 48th.

Welcome to Omaha/Bellevue: Bellevue City Park: Faulkland Park

 Faulkland Park is unique in that it has a flat cement half mile trail. so you can walk in a circle and get all your walking done.  It also has some open areas as well as areas with trees--tall cottonwoods.  There is a play ground and covered picnic area.  It has parking.  I didn't see a restroom.  The park is just north of Cornhusker on 46th.

Welcome to Omaha/Bellevue: West Papio Trail

The West Papio Trail is along the Papillion Creek.  This trail can be accessed at several points.  I went to the trailhead behind Culvers off of south 36th.  Most notably there is a large bank of e-bikes.  The trail seems very nice, and can be traveled on either side of the creek.  This is also the southern end of the Keystone Trail which extends all the way to north Omaha, about 17.1 miles.

The creek seems to be in line with the runway from Offutt
