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 Trail System

Red Grade Trail System is a looping, non-motorized, year-round hiking and biking trail system located on State, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and Bighorn National Forest land. More than 17 miles are accessible from 5 trailheads between The Base and Bear Gulch. Some trails are open to equestrians. The trail system is funded entirely by grants and private donations to Sheridan Community Land Trust.

Tongue River Water Trail

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. Grab a map and enjoy a day on the water!

Soldier Ridge Trail System

Soldier Ridge Trail System features the original Soldier Ridge Trail, Hidden Hoot Trail, The Link Trail,  Kicking Horse Trail, and the Double Eagle Trail all conveniently located on the edge of Sheridan from three trailheads. Combined, visitors can access a 10-mile loop that offers sweeping views of the Bighorns. Much of the trail system is on working ranch land that families have worked with SCLT to permanently conserve.
