TrailArts provides innovative and cost-effective solutions for the development and management of sustainable natural-surface trails.  TrailArts assists the public and private sectors with trail resource training, planning, construction, and maintenance solutions that maximize user satisfaction while minimizing impacts to the surrounding environment.

TrailArts understanding of natural resource, land use, and recreation management is based on more than a decade of field-based experience.  Since 1998 TrailArts has performed trail consulting and construction for over 150 miles of natural-surface shared-use trails in Colorado, Idaho, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

TrailArts clients have included contractors, municipalities, county agencies, non-profit organizations, and private landowners, and we’ve developed trails in a variety of environments including:  Desert, Sub–Desert, Grasslands, Montane and Sub-Alpine forest, Alpine Tundra, and various elevations of riparian plant communities.

TrailArts mission is to promote and advocate the development of natural surface recreational trails that are cost-effective and sustainable, minimize human impacts to the environment, and provide enjoyable facilities for the trail user.  We believe our reputation as a leader in the trail industry is due to this unwavering vision, our unique understanding of the needs of the trail user, and an appreciation and respect for the artistry of Mother Nature.
