Trail Blazing Volunteers Needed

Volunteers are currently being recruited to help establish soft trails (woodchips or dirt paths) within Upper Dublin Parks and Open Space areas. There is no long-term commitment to join, simply contact Derek Dureka, Parks and Recreations Director, by phone at (215) 643-1600 x3239 or by email to be added to the interest list. Each time a trailblazing day is announced, you will be asked to attend and volunteer your time.

Establishing soft trails will give residents better access to Township owned open space and continue the goal of making Upper Dublin a walkable community.

Visit the photo gallery to see volunteers in action at Rose Valley Preserve.

Upper Dublin Trail and Pathway System

A system of pedestrian and bicycle trails, pathways and sidewalks connecting Upper Dublin residents with parks, school, transit hubs, shopping areas, regional trail networks and neighboring municipalities has been designed by a team of land planners, engineers and staff from the Township and Montgomery County. Funding for trail construction will be from Montgomery County and Pennsylvania grant sources along with Township sources.

"Trail Walking Tours" will be scheduled to introduce the public to these new amenities. Stay tuned for advertised dates and times on UDTV, on www.upperdublin.net, to subscribers through UDP&R e-News and in future Leisure Guides.
