Sustainable Trail Design

Sustainable trail design involves creating pathways that allow people to enjoy nature while minimizing environmental impact. It focuses on planning routes that protect plant life, prevent erosion, and reduce soil disturbance. Techniques include using natural materials, strategic planning to avoid sensitive areas, and incorporating features like drainage to manage water flow. The goal is to ensure trails are durable, safe, and easy to maintain over time, promoting conservation and enjoyment for future visitors without harming the surrounding ecosystem.
