Trails 2035 is our community-focused strategic plan designed to achieve Better Trails | Greater Access for all trail user groups at Mount Diablo State Park.
Over the next 10 years, our four goals, ranked by estimated funding requirements:
Trails 2035 requires a vital fundraising drive powered by charitable donations from people like you
Trails 2035 strategic goals are based on fulfilling the policy recommendations of the 2016 Road and Trail Management Plan (RTMP) for Mount Diablo State Park.
The 2016 RTMP was a stakeholder-driven mandate to address and adapt to evolving trail user needs, including greater trail access opportunities for off-road cyclists and park visitors with accessibility needs.
The trail network at Mount Diablo State Park has not kept pace with these evolving trail user needs. With Trails 2035, Mount Diablo Trails Alliance aims to be part of the solution, helping Mount Diablo State Park become that beacon for balancing conservation and recreation.
Your Charitable Donations Are Critical to the Achievement of Trails 2035 Goals
Trails 2035 will not succeed without community funding, given the costs associated with the multi-year Better Trails | Greater Access goals and related projects.
Project Cost Examples:
Rare plant surveys for the change-in-use (CIU) process, new trail construction, and trail maintenance to be conducted in sensitive species zones
CEQA studies (California Environmental Quality Act) for CIU and new trail construction
Construction services and materials for trail modifications or reroutes related to the CIU process
Construction services and materials related to the building of ADA-compliant trails
