Shining a light on the work they've been doing on Pennsylvania's trail network, the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Trails Advisory Committee report highlights major accomplishments on over 50 trails throughout Pennsylvania.

These projects represent significant accomplishments in trail planning, development, construction, maintenance and promotion.

The report also highlights: the construction of 74 miles of new trails; bridges that were built; improved trail access; the organization of trail work crews; numerous trail tours and sojourns that were offered; the creation of user-friendly mobile apps and web resources; publishing videos about PA trails on YouTube; and developing signage for trail users.

The Pennsylvania Trails Advisory Committee, in coordination with DCNR, continues to work toward the ambitious goal of a trail in every community throughout Pennsylvania.

A copy of the report is available online.
