Stay tuned! Activities will occur throughout the day from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., along the entirety of the 3.8 mile-stretch of the Trolley Trail. The event is free for everyone; we welcome people of all ages and backgrounds to celebrate with us.
Background!
The Trolley Trail is a 3.8-mile-long trail that is a recreational and transportation asset – it can also become even more of an economic driver than it is today. By linking the downtowns and commercial areas of the three Baltimore Avenue Corridor communities, the Trolley Trail serves as a convenient connection between our communities. It also connects into the larger region’s trail network, linking us with the District of Columbia and other jurisdictions. Through events like Trolley Trail Day, we can become a greater destination for residents and out-of-town cyclists alike to explore our restaurants, breweries, and shops.
In 2023
Community development organizations (the College Park City-University Partnership, Hyattsville CDC, and Anacostia Trails Heritage Area Inc.), local governments and nonprofit organizations held the second-ever Trolley Trail Day and it was a tremendous success – over 1,500 people participated and over 50 businesses and organizations attended or supported the event.
