The NC General Assembly designated 2023 as NC Year of the Trail, an effort led by the Great Trails State Coalition, a broad-based group of diverse organizations, agencies, and supporters advocating for increased state investment in all types of trails statewide: hiking, paddle, mountain biking, equestrian, and paved. The Year of the Trail celebrates North Carolina’s vast and diverse collection of scenic trails, paths, and greenways, and encourages all of us to recognize our role as champions of these special resources. They are valuable to communities because the benefits they provide can be readily and freely enjoyed by all, whether for hiking, biking, walking, or running, on our own or with kids on our shoulders and dogs trotting ahead. These paths are a place of refuge and recreation. In Cornelius, our trails and greenways contribute to the overall sense of place and the quality of life for residents and visitors.
We plan to celebrate the Year of the Trail with a host of events throughout 2023. You will have opportunities to improve your physical and mental well-being, connect with nature to destress, create community though volunteering, or enjoy a fun outing with family and friends. Come along with us this year as we celebrate Year of the Trail!
We will also continue the Heads Up Cornelius campaign in 2023, maintaining our efforts to promote awareness of pedestrian and cyclist safety in order to make this community safer for all who live, work, and play here! If you’re ready to get out there, check out all the trails Cornelius has to offer. There’s something for everyone!
