NRTs ARE TRAILS FOR ALL AMERICANS
Every kind of trail activity is represented in the listing of
designated NRTs. Besides hiking and bicycling, the system includes water trails, motorized routes, snow tracks, greenways, and equestrian paths. The NRT program showcases the diversity of trails across America, from our cities and suburbs to the deserts, waterways, and high mountains.
