$5,000 Goal

The Trinity Nature Conservancy is dedicated to elevating the Trinity River, its parks and forests, as one of the most valued natural assets in Texas.

For decades, access to the Trinity River has been impeded by fences, gates, wooded areas, and dumping grounds. Today, after years of strong leadership and forward-thinking community visionaries, North Texas has planned a 7,303-mile web of interconnected, community-shared bike paths and on-street bike networks connecting DFW Metroplex. This ambitious planning and development project, led by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, has spurred the development of over fifty river-facing public parks and river-adjacent hiking and biking trails, transforming the Trinity River-front into a magnet for recreational and leisure activity.

The riverfront is also attracting development along its banks, leading the way for millions of dollars in economic development. The Trinity River Paddling Trail is a welcome addition to meet the growing demand for nature-related recreation and eco-sensitive development.
