CARTS
(Central Alberta Regional
Trails Society)
is a not-for-profit society,
completely run by volunteers, that exists to provide information and
support regarding recreational trail designation and development in
Central Alberta.
While not a trail development group, CARTS is interested in supporting
local trail development groups by providing guidance and support
throughout their development process.
CARTS is committed to an inclusive public participation process in
determining trail designation and their development. This includes
seeking endorsement from local municipalities, agencies and trail
development groups.
