Office of Trails

The Office of Trails was created on May 12, 2008. Recognizing the state’s and department’s budget situation, the creation of the Office of Trails was “budget neutral”. Existing staff duties were realigned to make this possible.

The short term goals of the Office of Trails over the next year include the following:

Completing the revision of the Statewide Trail Plan (link for 2005 plan - Ohio Trails Plan )
Administering the next round of grants, which includes the Clean Ohio Trails Fund
Development of a web based trail map that would be available on our web page, the Ohio Division of Travel and Tourism’s web page, as well as others.

The entire staff of the Office of Trails is committed to providing prompt and quality customer service. Please feel free to contact our office with any questions and/or suggestions that you may have.
