SUPPORT TRAILS – BUILD TRAILS – CELEBRATE  TRAILS

Since 1991, Friends of the Riverfront has worked to protect and restore the riverfronts in our region through trail development, stewardship, activities, and advocacy. We’re proud of our more than 35 miles of trail, a water trail with more than 30 river access points, and 35 more miles in development. We coordinate more than 1000 volunteers annually to keep the trail clean and accessible. We advocate for trails and hold events to connect people back to our riverfronts. 

Together, we can ensure that not only can we continue this work, but that our trails continue to grow and thrive – connecting our communities to others across the country.
