Donations to the Trails Fund help preserve, maintain and expand our trail network and ensure that the Park District's trails continue to inspire and connect visitors for generations to come. Your donation will allow Cleveland Metroparks staff and volunteers to rehabilitate natural surface trails - and build new trails - using sustainable standards that minimize natural resource impact and maintenance while maximizing user enjoyment.
Gifts to the Trails Fund helped fund the recently completed Pond Trail in Acacia Reservation, the new Chippewa Gorge Trail in Brecksville Reservation, as well as significant trail restoration work in Rocky River, North Chagrin, Bedford and Mill Stream Run Reservations. Upcoming work will focus on Bedford, South Chagrin, Mill Stream Run, North Chagrin and West Creek Reservations, with additional improvements throughout the Park District.
Trails Fund donations can also be a meaningful way to honor a special runner, hiker or biker while helping to conserve and enhance Cleveland Metroparks. Individuals being honored, or the family of those memorialized, will be notified of your donation.
