Darien Trail Work Day: Start the Connector TrailMay 10, 9:30amDarien Lakes State Park - Broadway LotJoin the WNYMBA at Darien Lakes State Park in making trail magic happen!

We're excited to kick off construction of Singletrack Trail 1 (ST-1), the missing piece that will eventually complete the loop at Darien (and yes, it will be getting a new name!)

This construction event will focus on starting the connector trail portion of ST-1.

This is your chance to be part of building a fantastic new multi-use trail that will enhance the experience for hikers, bikers, and all outdoor enthusiasts.

ST-1 will wind through the park's beautiful landscape, connecting Oz and Shotgun Ridge to create a more seamless and enjoyable flow for everyone.
