    Program Description:

    In 1994, the idea for a community trail began with a shared vision that brought together the West Ghent Civic League, Norfolk Historical Society, Norfolk Southern Corporation, and the City of Norfolk. The initial segment of the trail opened in 2003 along the 3,500 feet of railroad right of way donated by Norfolk Southern. Today the Elizabeth River Trail runs for 10.5 miles between Harbor Park Stadium and Norfolk International Terminals, passing by Town Point Park, the USS Wisconsin, Fort Norfolk, Plum Point Park and several of Norfolk’s historic neighborhoods.

    Join our walking tour of a section of the Elizabeth River Trail and learn more about the history of the trail, continued efforts, ongoing maintenance and exciting new projects!

    After the tour, we will continue our discussion at Smartmouth Brewing Co.
