About Us

Contact us at info@trailtamers.org

We are a group of ready volunteers from the general public of Central Texas and beyond who donate our time and effort to build and maintain hike & bike trails, including ADA accessible trails.

Our mission is to relieve some of the burdens faced by government agencies who oversee our public parks, preserves and forests by working on approved trail construction and maintenance projects that enhance public access to and enjoyment of these special places.

We operate as a Texas 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation governed by a five member board of directors who serve without pay.

A $25 one-time-per-year fee is charged to anyone who signs up for a long-distance work trip. This fee covers the cost of our volunteer insurance for that initial work trip and any additional trips during that year.

A small participation fee (usually no more than $85) is charged for most long-distance projects. This fee covers the cost of food, advertising, and other administrative costs. No fee is charged for local projects.

Camping is our usual form of lodging on long-distance projects, but sometimes the host agency provides sleeping and cooking facilities. We usually provide all food for long-distance projects and meals are cooked by our volunteers.

We are a reputable, non-political organization with a proven track record in which anyone *18 or older can participate. (*Younger participants must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.)

This is a great way to work on meaningful and rewarding projects in an outdoor setting and have a good time as well. What better way to give something back for all the joy that trails provide!
