Across the Triangle, 2025 was a year of powerful advocacy, meaningful community gatherings, and major steps forward for regional connectivity. Triangle Trails Initiative and its partners brought people together, protected critical projects, and launched new tools that help residents and visitors experience the region’s growing trail network in new ways. From city halls to trailheads, the momentum for trails was unmistakable.

On April 23, regional leaders, planners, and passionate advocates will gather at Dix Chapel for the Triangle Trails Summit—a day dedicated to shaping the future of the Triangle’s growing network of greenways and blueways.
