Plan Purpose and Need
The purpose of the Road and Trail Management Plan (RTMP) is to provide a comprehensive planning document that examines Trione-Annadel State Park’s existing system of roads and trails to provide direction for their long-term planning, design, construction, maintenance, and management. It considers current and potential public use, park operations, and the protection and enhancement of cultural and natural resources to ensure recreational trail opportunities are made available to their fullest potential while protecting vital resources. This comprehensive planning effort will also consider regional recreational opportunities and connectivity and will include extensive public outreach and input on planning recommendations.
Specifically, this plan will:
- Propose recommendations that will improve circulation, connectivity between park use areas, enhance user experiences, and reduce conflict between user groups;
- Make recommendations to keep and adopt, eliminate or re-align non-system (user-created/volunteer) trails;
- Make recommendations to restore, eliminate, or re-align road and trails that are not environmentally or ecologically sustainable;
- Prioritize maintenance needs;
- Identify improvements and additions to road and trail infrastructure, such as restrooms, parking, trailheads, and other visitor service facilities.
California State Parks has contracted with Ascent, a planning and environmental consulting firm, to support the preparation of the Road and Trail Management Plan. Review of the contractual scope-of-services is available in this link. Project task and deliverable dates are for contracultural purposes and are subject to amendment based on project needs. An overview of the planning process and schedule is available at this link. Additional details on the planning process will be updated on this website and will be available at the first public workshop in summer 2025.
