Connecting Communities
Our vision is that 90 percent of Americans will live within three miles of a trail system by 2020.
Working Together
Trails stimulate economic growth, spurring small business and improving quality of life.
Discovering Trails
For health, for mobility, for community connections…that’s why we use and love trails.
Trails Transform Places
We believe that trail networks can deliver smart transportation, strong economic growth, healthy people, a flourishing environment and social equity. Our projects of national significance are regional network-building projects—implemented in partnership with local organizations—that have the power to catalyze the development of trail networks nationwide, creating healthier places for healthier people.
