SCRG Named “National Recreation Trail”

The Sand Creek Regional Greenway has been designated as an official “National Recreation Trails” for 2012 by the US Department of the Interior. The Sand Creek Regional Greenway was the only trail in Colorado, and one of only 54 other trails in the nation, to receive this distinction in 2012. 

The National Recreational Trail designation was established in 2003 to recognize trails of local and regional significance that link communities to recreational opportunities. These trails connect the public to local outdoor recreation activities in a variety of urban, rural, and remote areas. To read the full press release, click here. 

We are honored to receive this distinction, and thank Secretary Salazar and the Department of the Interior for their support!
