The trail's name comes from the Little Econlockhatchee River, which it follows past Blanchard Park. From the eastern end the route runs along Lokanotosa Road before turning off behind University High School, and the first road crossing from that side is Rouse Road, which jogs north.
Multiple parking areas are available at Jay Blanchard Park, Econ Soccer Complex, and Arcadia Acres, with trail access permitted from sunrise to sunset and specific regulations for cyclists and pet owners.
A direct link from the trail's western end at Forsyth Road to the Cady Way Trail is planned; the Cady Way Trail crosses Forsyth Road a few miles north. Through the Orange County Trail System, Cady Way connects onward to the Cross Seminole Trail.
