THE GREATER READING TRAILS PARTNERSHIP
EXPLORE. ENJOY. RIGHT AT HOME.
Together, the partnership prioritized nearly 90 projects to implement that will result in easily accessible, well-marked recreational opportunities that connect numerous trails and natural resources in Greater Reading. We believe that by enhancing trails and greenways, this will influence and support Berks County's very active and professional economic development activities for the region. Berks Nature leads this partnership because through greater use and appreciation of these natural resources and recreational assets by our citizens, improved stewardship and interest in the environment will ensue.
Berks Area Mountain Biking Association’s involvement with the Greater Reading Trails Partnership has resulted in our region being named a Bronze Level International Mountain Biking Destination through the International Mountain Biking Association.
