2022–2023 Winter Snowplowing on Regional Trails
From mid-November through March, winter maintenance is performed on more than 100 miles of the regional trail system. This is achieved through a partnership between Three Rivers Park District and local cities.
Plowing response times will vary across the system and are dependent on local city plowing schedules and priorities. View a map that shows which are maintained during the winter season, or refer to the list below.
