We Need Your Help to Build the Next Miles of the Whitefish Trail: The Rainbow Connection

The Whitefish Trail has grown into 47 miles of single-track trail with 15 trailheads, connecting our community to the open lands we love. But we’re not finished yet; we are fundraising to build the newest section of the Whitefish Trail from Rainbow Lake to Murray Lake in the Beaver Lakes area.

With your support, this trail will:🌿 Open access to more forests, lakes, and viewpoints🚴‍♀️ Provide more opportunities for hiking, biking, and family adventures

Bring trail access to Murray Lake

This is your chance to leave a legacy. By contributing to 1.6 miles of new Whitefish Trail construction, you’re not just funding trails—you’re creating connections and access to open lands for generations to come.
