National Trails Day

June 1, 2024

Let’s hit the trails! Enjoy free entry to the Anne Springs Close Greenway on National Trails Day. With our combined efforts, the Anne Springs Close Greenway aims to record 2,000 miles of trails covered.

RECORD YOUR MILES

Guests blew past our 1,000-mile challenge last year by recording a total of 1,912.98 miles! This year, we know we can work together to reach 2,000! Find estimated mileage by multiplying the number in your group (including dogs and horses) by the mileage of the trail(s) you hiked/biked/rode. You may also count the number of paddling loops you completed on Lake Haigler.

Not only will recording miles help us reach our goals, but the Greenway will raffle off a membership and a White Oak Tree from Fast Growing Trees to those who recorded miles.
