Race Street Olympic Discovery Trail Extension

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 City of Port Angeles will use this grant to build Phase II of III of the 2.7 mile Race Street Trail, a multiuse trail that connects Olympic Discovery Trail to the Olympic National Park Visitor Center in Port Angeles. Phase II consists of approximately half a mile of trail between 8th and 2nd street and connects to Civic Field and Erickson Park. The primary outdoor recreation opportunity provided by this project is walking, and rolling.
