“What started as a simple idea—creating pathways from disused railways—has blossomed into more than 42,500 miles of multiuse trails in cities and towns and through varied landscapes across the country. During this special day, we hope that you get a chance to get out on a trail to celebrate with friends, family and neighbors, and experience the joy of being outdoors and connecting with each other.”
