The State Trails Program

Since its establishment in 1971, the State Trails Program of Colorado State Parks has been active in encouraging trail development. The State Trails Master Plan is an inventory of Colorado's trail system and now guides the Colorado Greenway Project which funds local trail construction using Colorado Lottery proceeds and other funding. Since 1983, the program has provided more than $11.5 million for more than 303 trail projects. The Trails Program also aids local communities and citizens' groups with technical assistance, trail planning, and coordination with other agencies.

Trails on Federal Public Lands

In addition to building trails in Colorado's communities, the Colorado Lottery provides funding for a wide variety of trails work on our federal public lands. These “backcountry” trails include foot, horse, and bicycling routes. Lottery funding most often goes to support the efforts of volunteers to sustain this network of trails. Other improvement projects include bridges, trailheads, and interpretive facilities. Visitor maps for each of the national forests can be purchased at Forest Service offices, bookstores, sporting goods stores, and by mail from Visitor Map Sales (303) 275-5350.
