Welcome to the Anchorage Trails and Greenways Coalition Website. We are in the process of constructing this site as of 3/31/2007. The ATGC consists of trail enthusiasts who live in or around Anchorage, Alaska. We are all very proud of the trails that we have nearby. We work hard with the Municipality of Anchorage to keep the trails safe and plan for future growth.
Our History
The ATGC began in 1992 out of an effort by local trail users to help the Municipality of Anchorage revise their trail plan. In the mid to late 90's, membership peaked at around 50 to 60 people who met monthly. Recently, the ATGC has been in remission and is currently experiencing a revitalization. Anchorage has grown and it is time for our trails to grow as well.
ATGC's Mission Statement:
To establish & improve trails & greenways through service, education, advocacy & cooperation among diverse interests.
ATGC's goals are:
Be the forum through which Anchorage residents can:
Build a sense of community among all trail users.
Guide establishment of greenways, trails and walkways, and year-round maintenance and management of these facilities.
Involve supporters in projects that maintain and improve Anchorage trails and greenways.
Encourage safe, courteous, and cooperative trail use.
