IEDA are proud to support the paving completion of the Cedar Valley Nature Trail through the Destination Iowa program! We're excited to see recreation accessibility grow in our Iowa communities and continue to bring joy and foster a connection to nature for everyone! 🥾🌳
Destination Iowa was proud to support the paving completion of the original 52-mile Cedar Valley Nature Trail, a project committed to making recreation accessible to everyone. Iowa was the first to use the 1983 Rails-to-Trails Act, turning old rail lines into scenic trails. This significant trail development for Cedar Valley highlights the vital role recreational trails play in our state and the profound impact they have on our communities. Congratulations! Linn County Black Hawk County
