About us
Volunteer with Keystone Trails Association to help maintain PA's extensive system of hiking trails. Each year, on designated weekends between March and November, dedicated trail care volunteers gather, and, armed with blaze paint, limb loppers, pulaskis and brushcutters, they clear and upgrade hiking trail corridors and treadways.
Besides the benefit to the trails, Trail Care offers fellowship, camaraderie, the chance to visit new-to-you parks and trails, new skills, cool swag, stress relief, and instant gratification!
Trail Care events will include Friday as a scheduled workday. Camping sites for Trail Care Weekends will be available on Thursday evenings for participants who want to roll-in and get set up.
Two full days of trail work on Friday and Saturday are followed by evenings of campfire sociability and possibly dinner out at a local restaurant. After a morning of additional trail work, the weekend concludes around noon on Sunday. Volunteers who cannot work the trail on Friday are still very welcome to come in Friday night for work on Saturday and/or Sunday. Participants provide their own camping gear and food.
If you can't attend an entire event, you can join the group for whatever portion is convenient. No experience or special skills are required. Tools and work gloves will be provided.
