The French Camp Slough Trail, also known as the San Joaquin River Trail, parallels both waterways on levees in the southern reaches of Stockton. Near its midpoint, the trail connects to the Pacific Gas and Electric Greenbelt, offering deeper access into the Weston Ranch neighborhood.
There is limited access to the trail at Abruzzi Court, William Moss Boulevard and Carolyn Weston Boulevard. The route is exposed with no shade, so be sure to bring water and wear sunscreen.
Parking for the French Camp Slough Trail is available at Paul E. Weston Park on Ishi Goto Street. From the park, head north on the Pacific Gas and Electric Greenbelt for less than half a mile to reach the trail.
We went on a 5 mile run this morning. It was a nice trail with 75% of it having a river view which was nice! However, there is absolutely no shade so I suggest sunscreen and being done by 11am especially in the summer.
