About Ouray Trail Group
Tasked with keeping the trails around Ouray in great shape. Enjoy!
Our Mission
The Ouray Trail Group was founded in 1986 for the purpose of stewarding safe and enjoyable hiking in the San Juan Mountains while preserving their beauty and natural resources. In addition to restoring and maintaining historic hiking trails, OTG works cooperatively with others to preserve the fascinating but fragile remnants of the 19th Century Mining Era trails throughout the region.
To accomplish this, we coordinate trail restoration, maintenance and sign work with the U.S. Forest Service; publish a hiking guide and map; maintain a website; create and maintain trail registers; and organize trail stewardship days and training opportunities for our volunteers.
Most importantly, members have the opportunity to take a stewardship role in protecting, preserving and maintaining the natural and recreational resources we all enjoy.
