Our work
Projects we're working on
From the mountain biking and hiking trails at Braddock's Trail Park to a proposed shared-use path between Irwin and Larimer.
Braddock's Trail Park Trails
In cooperation with the North Huntingdon Township, Friends of Norwin Trails provides volunteer maintenance for the hiking and biking trails in Braddock's Trail Park.
Trolley Line Trail
The Trolley Line Trail is a proposed 1.5 mile trail along the former West Penn Railways trolley route between Irwin and Larimer. If built, this trail would expand access to beautiful trails at Hilltop Park.
A study of the trail begins in the fall of 2026 and will be completed by the summer of 2027. It will gather public input, assess whether the trail is feasible, and estimate what it would cost to build.
