Welcome to the Pennsylvania Online Rails-to-Trails Guide .

The conversion of former railroad corridors into public use trails is a Pennsylvania success story. Each year, millions of outdoor enthusiasts now enjoy a growing network of Rail-Trails.

Through a dynamic partnership with DCNR, local Rail-Trail organizations, counties, townships, and municipalities have acquired, designed, constructed, and are managing and maintaining Rail-Trails in every region of the Commonwealth. From small villages in rural areas to larger cities in highly urbanized centers, volunteers have come together to make the Pennsylvania Rail-Trail Program a national leader.

Contained in this web site is information on Rails-Trails open to the public, under construction, and proposed. DCNR will periodically update this site as information comes into us from our many trail partners.
