Cumberland Valley Rails-to-Trails Council CVRTC is an all-volunteer, non-profit, charitable corporation currently developing the 11-mile Cumberland Valley Trail, from Shippensburg to Newville, in Cumberland County PA. Learn more About CVRTC

Cumberland Valley Rails-to-Trails Council Are you interested in seeing the trail extended to Carlisle?   We are currently working with Cumberland County trying to make it happen but we need some Carlisle based volunteers to take up the challenge.  Click here for more information on a possible extension. 

Carlisle Area Health & Wellness Foundation CVRTC recently received a grant from the Carlisle Area Health & Wellness Foundation to educated people on the importance of wearing a bicycle helmet and to provide helmets to individuals that need one.  The helmets will be distributed at Get Movin' Night at the Nancy Grayson Elementary School and Race, Run, Ride & Ramble held by CVRTC.   If you are aware of anyone who is in need of a helmet and they cannot attend one of these events, please contact us.

Work Days

Now that the Cumberland Valley Rail -Trail is mostly complete,  we must turn our attention the the care and maintenance of the trail. CVRTC depends on local membership dues and contributions to pay for the maintenance of the trail. We receive no funding from the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy (RTC), or from any government entity.  CVRTC also depends on volunteers to provide all the labor. Consider adopting a section of the trail, arranging a work day with your group or coming as an individual to one of our a work days.  If you would like to be notified of future work days or if you or your group would like to schedule you own work day please contact us at info@cvrtc.org
