Soul Dirt - Trails for All
Trails are for everyone. More than a catchphrase, it’s a commitment. With this in mind, we launched Soul Dirt in 2022 to encourage sustainable, accessible recreation for the health of everyone in our community.
Soul Dirt is the programmatic embodiment of this commitment. We began this effort to provide equitable access to the outdoors, while promoting stewardship of our public lands.
When people can safely access outdoor spaces in our community, they are able to experience the transformative power of nature—making them healthier in mind, body, and soul.
What We Do
Soul Dirt provides free VVMTA-led activities including group hikes, mountain bike rides, and backpacking trips on soft surface trails across Eagle County.
Soul Dirt addresses the inequity that the people with the least access to the outdoors often stand to benefit most. We strive to provide accessible, relevant opportunities for marginalized communities—those who have been excluded in the past because of age, ability, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or income level.
No bike? No problem. Borrow one for free from our fleet. Need something else to get you on the trail with Soul Dirt? Talk to us!
Who We Serve
Soul Dirt is collaborative program working with community organizations in the Vail Valley. Designed to uniquely engage each community our partners serve, trail activities are facilitated intentionally to meet the specific need of our partners networks. We strive to support our partners achieve their missions by providing free access to the trails and their benefits. Click the logos to learn more about the programs we support.
