Founded in 1991, Portland Trails is a nonprofit organization that is creating connections between neighbors, communities, and the natural world.

For over 30 years, we have been building and maintaining a trail network for residents and visitors of Portland to use and enjoy. We believe that trails, in conjunction with safe streets and robust public transportation, can transform our city into a healthier, happier, and safer community.

Today, our network includes almost 100 miles of trails, and they’re visited over one million times each year. Most notably, our trails are within half a mile of every home and a quarter mile of 95% of homes in Portland. Our trails are in every neighborhood, connect to almost every school, and extend into Westbrook and Falmouth.

Every day, thousands of our neighbors visit the trails for a morning jog, a safe walk to school, a moment of peace, or an off-street commute.

Every dollar donated to Portland Trails supports the year-round care and upkeep of the trails we all love. You can learn more at www.trails.org.
