Trails of Cumberland County

In 2025 there are over 100 miles of hiking trails in the county, up from 30 miles in 2012, and these trails are well used by residents and visitors.  The historical growth of the trails systems in the county shows there is a lot of public support for more trails as evidenced by the number of volunteers who do physical work on the trails, the enthusiasm shown by hikers when new trails are added into the inventory and the enthusiastic participation in the local Hiking Marathon.

For the purposes of describing trails and hikes, the county is divided into six areas. These areas are listed in this table and can be reached using the buttons above.

Here you will find trail maps, driving directions and trails descriptions for all the hiking trails in Cumberland county.  Over 200 miles of hikes are described here.

Interactive Map of County Trails

This is a new feature we are trying out. Let us know what you think.

We have created a Google “My Map” of Cumberland County and added many of the trails as GPX tracks. We think this is a useful feature as it allows you to zoom in on the trail, get driving directions and use other common features of Google maps. We will be adding more trails and features.
