We’d like to recommend a number of the Trans Allegheny Trails’ friends and neighbors – groups, organizations and communities that support what we are doing or have similar missions.

• Rails-to-Trails Conservancy is a partner and at least partially responsible for the existence of the Trans Allegheny Trails System! Their 2011 Greenway Sojourn utilized a number of our trails and was a catalyst that drew trail operators together. Here’s a video of that sojourn.  If you are interesting in reading more about that sojourn, you can do so at the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy website.
   
• The Pittsburgh-To-Harrisburg Main Line Canal Greenway contains the Trans Allegheny Trails within its 320-mile corridor and is another valued partner as is the Cambria & Indiana Trail Council.
   
• The Allegheny Trail Alliance, which operates the Great Allegheny Passage, is an inspiration to us, is one of the nation’s finest rail-trails and runs just a bit south of the Trans Allegheny Trails.
   
• This website was funded through grants from Westmoreland County Tourism Grant Program, administered by the Laurel Highlands Visitors Bureau, the Indiana County Tourism Bureau, Indiana County Parks & Trails, and Explore Altoona along with the financial assistance of participating trail operators.
