See a preview of the online NRT database to inform trail managers of the information and documents required for new
applications as well as for trail updates. You may use this as a checklist to gather data for the online application. Basic
information is entered on the database website, and supporting materials (maps, photos, etc.) can be uploaded but must be in
standard electronic formats.
This application process is for trails on state, local, or private land, OR on federal land (outside the US Department of
Agriculture). If your trail is on National Forest, National Grassland, or other land managed by the Department of Agriculture, see
the USDA Application Process for NRTs.
