Trail Builders Network

The new Trail Builders Network is Hike Nova Scotia's capacity building hub for trail groups, First Nations and municipalities that build and maintain hiking trails.

Hike NS represents the largest group of trail users on our trails, so we're upping our game to better support the folks that make the trails we use possible! Stay tuned for webinars and in-person trail building workshops this spring and fall. Trail groups, First nations and municipalities that become Hike NS group members can take webinars for free and trail building workshops at reduced rates. We’ll also keep you in the loop about news, funding and other things trail builders should know.

Trail Troubleshooting Online Discussions: May 31 or June 9
