Trails Projects

COMBA2.jpg

Trails projects are where we spend most of our time and money, because MTB-specific experiences have to be pursued and created. COMBA gets involved at every step from concept to plan, fundraising to construction. We bring the experience and resources needed to develop world-class trails and trail systems. Our Trails Team develops collaborative partnerships with each land manager in our area to ensure well-maintained and constructed trails that have the least possible impact on wildlife and critical habitats. Volunteers are instrumental to our success and we would love to show you how much fun it can be to roll up your sleeves and build what you ride.
