Description
Join the Carson City Parks, Recreation and Open Space Department for a celebratory hike at the Foothill Trailhead in honor of National Trails Day! National Trails Day allows us to recognize all the benefits we have from our local trail systems and appreciate the ability to be in nature. On this year's National Trails Day, Carson City Open Space will be launching the new "Trails Challenge", a program created to encourage the exploration of Carson City's many trails and open spaces, with one of the trails on the "Trails Challenge" being the V&T Trail. During the hike you will see trail maintenance being done and learn about the history of the V&T Trail, including the old V&T Railroad and the natural history of the plants in the area.
The hike is considered "more difficult" under the IMBA Trail Rating System. Expect moderate terrain for about 1 mile. Be sure to bring close toed shoes, snacks, and plenty of water.
