New River Water Trail Expansion

Project Description:

The New River Water Trail Expansion Project is funded by the Appalachian Regional Commission in partnership with NRVRC, Pulaski County, City of Radford, Montgomery County, and Giles County.

Goal:

Our goal is to expand on the tools that Giles County has created over the past 10 years, to create a cohesive water trail experience in the New River Valley. Throughout 2021 we will be exploring the New River Water Trail expansion with the goal of applying for implementation funding in 2022.

How to Get Involved:

The New River is a valuable natural resource for our region, providing us with scenic views, award-winning recreation, wildlife habitat, and support to many local businesses.
