Portland Trails directory

Portland Trails transforms Greater Portland into a healthier community for people powered transportation, conservation, and recreation, by creating a network of trails and green spaces that connect people with places. The current trail network includes over 70 miles of trails and green space that reach within a half mile of every residence in Portland and connect thousands of residents across Greater Portland. Our trails have over one million trail uses per year, and we support projects in Portland and the surrounding communities of South Portland, Falmouth, and Westbrook. From someone's morning jog, to a student's safe walk to school, we are a part of people's lives every day.

Our mission focuses on the following priorities: trails, active transportation, conservation, and placemaking. Our trail projects provide greater connectivity, safer walking routes, strengthened ecological corridors, and an increased sense of place for residents and trail users. Our extensive trail volunteer program provides an opportunity for individuals and corporate groups to engage in stewardship of local land, while taking ownership of their local trails and green spaces. We believe in complete streets, and are dedicated to making trails an important component of a a city accessible by foot, bicycle, and public transit for people of all backgrounds.
