Carson City Parks, Rec and Open Space to celebrate National Trails Day, launch 'Trails Challenge'
Join the Carson City Parks, Recreation and Open Space Department for a celebratory hike at the Foothill Trailhead in honor of National Trails Day! National Trails Day allows us to recognize and appreciate all the benefits we have from our local trail systems and appreciate the ability to be in nature.
On this year's National Trails Day, Carson City Open Space will be launching the new "Trails Challenge", a program created to encourage the exploration of Carson City's many trails and open spaces, with one of the trails on the Challenge being the V&T Trail. During the hike you will see trail maintenance being don and learn about the history of the V&T Trail, including the old V&T plant species.
Expect moderate terrain for about 1 mile. Be sure to bring close-toed shoes, snacks, plenty of water, and sun-protective clothing.
Join the Park Ranger and local ecologist led hike, check off the first trail on your Trails Challenge, and celebrate National Trails Day! Registration required ahead of time, and space is limited.
