The Greenways and Trails Summit is Pennsylvania’s premier networking, training, and inspirational event for those engaged in all aspects of trail and greenway work.
The 2025 Pennsylvania Greenways and Trails Summit, co-hosted by Dauphin County Parks & Recreation and Visit Hershey and Harrisburg, is set to take place from September 21 to 23, 2025, at the Hilton Harrisburg.
Bringing the 2025 Pennsylvania Greenways and Trails Summit to Dauphin County is a momentous occasion for the central Pennsylvania community. Greenways and trails serve as vital arteries that connect people, places, and nature. This premier networking, training, and inspirational event brings together professionals, volunteers, and trail enthusiasts from across the state and beyond. By hosting the summit in Dauphin County, we’re creating a unique hub for trail enthusiasts, conservationists, and outdoor advocates.
The 2025 Planning Committee is hard at work reviewing feedback from previous summits, identifying current issues in the field, and exploring resources to create the most relevant and rewarding mobile workshops, education sessions, and networking opportunities.
