2019 International Trails Symposium

American Trails hosted the 24th International Trails Symposium and Training Institute in Syracuse, New York April 28 - May 1, 2019

This biennial event hosts leaders in the trails industry from across North America and around the world. We host this exciting event because American Trails believes that trails, more than any other public amenity, have the ability to strengthen communities and connect us all to our happiest and healthiest selves. Through direct engagement, cooperation, and conversation with our fellow trail leaders, we can realize the value of trails to the human experience. Join us as we strive to make every stoop a trailhead.

The Symposium includes:

Numerous educational sessions covering a range of trail issues
Nationally and internationally prominent presenters
Learning credits via APA, ASLA, and NRPA CEU equivalency
Informative and interactive workshops
A state-of-the-art exhibit hall
The all new Trails Training Institute featuring the Professional TrailBuilders Association (PTBA) and other national trails training leaders
