Category Overview

Trails grants help communities and recreation areas fund the creation and improvement of trails for walking, hiking, cycling, horseback riding, and cross-country skiing. These grants help make communities more livable, create regional trails systems, and open up beautiful outdoor spaces for people to enjoy. WWRP is the largest source of trail support in the state of Washington.

Project Highlights

The Town of Twisp used this grant to acquire one trail easement and one right-of-way across two parcels of land connected to the Twisp Park along the Methow River. The acquisition, along with existing Town property, will allow for approximately 3/4 mile of trail corridor. The primary recreation opportunity provided by this project will be non-motorized trail use.
