The Trail Conservancy

For the past 20 years, we’ve been known as The Trail Foundation. The people passionately committed to making the Ann & Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail the place in Austin where the community felt included and welcome. So, why would we change who we are now?

We aren’t. We are just changing our name.

We are still the same passionate people who actively maintain and improve the Trail… conserving it. And it turns out that the most common term for who we are isn’t a foundation. It’s a conservancy.

As we usher in this new era as The Trail Conservancy, we are doubling down on our commitment to the Trail and the community. We are taking on a larger role as primary stewards, ensuring that it remains a place where all of Austin feels welcome and included.
