The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) recently announced the selection of projects for the Recreational Trails Program (RTP) grants. RTP helps to support the construction and rehabilitation of trails across the state, to encourage outdoor activity and enhance tourism opportunities as well. RTP will provide more than $3.1 million in funding this year to expand outdoor access across the state. Collaboration with local government and private organizations will help to leverage the RTP funds to a total of $9.4 million.
“The Recreational Trails Program helps ensure Georgians and visitors alike have access to high-quality outdoor recreation opportunities,” said Walter Rabon, Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. “By supporting trail construction and rehabilitation projects across the state, this funding strengthens communities, encourages healthy outdoor activity, and enhances Georgia’s growing recreation economy.”
