About the Heritage Trail

The Heritage Trail Plan is a regional network of automobile, bicycle and pedestrian facilities that connects Northwest Arkansas citizens and visitors to our rich heritage, our recreational and cultural assets, a healthier lifestyle, and to each other.

By implementing a region-wide network of bike and pedestrian facilities, the public will have access to healthy and safe alternatives to automotive travel. This system will also provide opportunities to experience the historic and natural environments of the area. As a result, the overall quality of life, economy, and health of the region will be enhanced. [Click here for more...]

The Heritage Trail was adopted into the Long Range Transportation Plan of northwest Arkansas’ Metropolitan Planning Organization on October 22, 2002.
