Rivers, trails, greenways and natural areas connect us to our environment
and benefit a community’s economy, public health, and quality of
life. The National Park Service Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance
(RTCA) Program supports community-based conservation action. By working
with local partners, we hope to foster a network of rivers, trails and
greenways that link people – where they live and work – to
each other, to their community, and to the countryside. Six western states
are served by regional and field offices. Here you will find information
about services and project profiles in California, Hawai‘i, Idaho,
Nevada, Oregon and Washington. The RTCA Program in the Pacific West Region
is managed from park service offices in Oakland and Seattle.
Officials cut the ribbon at the opening of the Willamette Water Trail. RTCA helped the Mid-Willamette River Connections Group to designate the 187-mile water recreation trail.
