The Grant County Heritage Trail, an initiative of FFLAG, is striving toward the development of 48 mile multi-surface, multi–use pathway. The multi-use pathway for Grant County would connect the northern and southern border of the county with existing infrastructure and future pathways. In developing a multi-surface, multi– use pathway, a wide range of users - cyclists, walkers, joggers, equestrian riders, and other not-motorized vehicles– will be served. And, the community will derive further health benefits by increasing physical activity via use of the county spanning pathway; allowing people of all ages and abilities to make the healthy choice, the easy choice.

2022 Grant County Heritage Trail Prospectus

The Heritage Trail Foundation is continuously seeking funding for the support over the next six years. This money will help complete phase 1, start phase 2 and phase 3 of pathway development, build sidewalks/ pathways to connect downtowns, neighborhoods, parks and schools, sustain the Grant County Heritage Trail Foundation, increase physical activity opportunities and increase access to healthy food options. 

Phase 1 (Crittenden area): The primary spine will start in the northern part of the county at the Harvesters Neighborhood continuing east along Violet Road using existing sidewalks, turning south along US-25 using existing sidewalks, continuing south along US-25 on the existing sidewalk until reaching the Grant County Park where the multi-use path will be constructed and continue to run south along the east side of I-75 near the highway right of way and between US-25. This phase will end at Crittenden Mt. Zion Road.

SPONSOR LEVELS: This trail initiative is intended to span many years. The first years will create major changes in the physical environment and set the stage for full trail development. Your sponsorship is critical for the success of this trail.
