Paddling along the Trinity River is a popular pastime for Fort Worth locals. Now, the Trinity River Paddling Trail is recognized on a national platform.
The Trinity River Paddling Trail received designation from the National Recreation Trails, making it a part of the American Trails. This designation will increase awareness of the Trinity and make it a “recreational target” beyond the Fort Worth Dallas area.
With this status, the Trinity is listed on the NPS website that gets 100 million hits a year.
The effort was led by a nonprofit called Trinity Coalition, which worked with the Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) and the nine cities along the river’s banks.
We are excited to officially be a part of the National Recreation Trails family and to watch how the love of the Trinity River Paddling Trail stretches beyond the community of Fort Worth.
