Now more than ever we need our trails, natural areas and public outdoor spaces. Together we can build and improve accessibility and put the national scenic and historic trails on the map and into your home!
The founders of the National Trails System anticipated scenic drives and day trips as one of the main ways to access, enjoy and appreciate the scenic landscapes and history of the country. But what they might not have anticipated was the need for virtual access too!
Choose your own adventure today with a day or virtual trip. And make a gift of $50 to the Partnership for the National Trails System. Or if you prefer, spread your gift out with monthly payments.
The Arizona National Scenic Trail captures the beauty and biodiversity of the state. You can hike, bike or ride a horse to explore individual segments of the trail. As one trail steward put it, you can travel the same section many times but the experience is never the same.
The Arizona Trail Association provides up to date information on the trail including loop hikes, rides and day hikes. To get a taste of some of the segments of the trail and the stewards who maintain it for you, view this short Arizona Public Media’s video (1st of 2 videos produced).
However long or short your adventure is, you will have experienced a piece of a world renowned trail and the amazing National Trails System. Your gift today of $50 to the Partnership will help to bring more trails, scenic and historic, to you.
