We work to create new recreation opportunities in Sheridan County for public benefit. Access to abundant recreation opportunities is critical to cultivating healthy communities. Whether it be hiking, mountain biking, boating, birding, or just having access to a beautiful and safe place to spend time with your family outside, new recreation opportunities are a win win for residents and visitors. Making it easy for families to get outside and recreate also connects the next generation with the outdoors and makes Sheridan County a more desirable place to live.
Red Grade Trail System
Red Grade Trails System is a looping, non-motorized, year-round hiking and biking trail located on State and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land at the foot of the Bighorn Mountains. The trail system is funded entirely by grants and annual membership donations to Sheridan Community Land Trust.
Tongue River Water Trail
Bring your boat, not your hiking shoes! The Tongue River Water Trail is a paddling trail. The “trail” is the streams and rivers and is a long-term vision of the Sheridan community to realize improved public access and safe floating conditions of navigable public waterways in central Sheridan County.
The Green Room Trail at Malcolm Wallop Park
The Green Room Trail location in the City of Sheridan’s Malcolm Wallop Park. The 1.25 mile trail is a great way to see the park and get some dirt in your wheels or tires while using the Sheridan Pathway. The trail features vantages of the Park from above and travels for part of its length along Goose Creek.
