Welcome!

Welcome to Prince William Trails & Streams Coalition (PWTSC), an active non-profit organization located within Prince William County Virginia.  Our members are passive recreation trail and blueway users, dedicated to establishing and promoting a County-wide system of trails and blueways that connect parks with our communities. We're always looking for volunteers, and if you would like to help on trail work and cleanup days, please take a look at our event calendar.  PWTSC has 501(c)(3) status and can accept your tax deductible donations and contributions.

Residents of Prince William County have repeatedly identified trails as one of the top recreational needs in county sponsored surveys.  Recognizing this public need, PWTSC members with different interests and backgrounds have come together to establish and promote the use of a County-wide system of trails connecting Parks with our communities, and stream recreation. We endeavor to educate Prince William County residents on the benefits to their fitness and wellbeing, and of the healthier environment that results from the preservation of these natural resources.

PWTSC supports the sharing of trails and streams for all non-motorized public recreation activities, including but not limited to hiking, jogging, biking, dog walking, bird watching, horseback riding and the general enjoyment of nature on trails; and canoeing, kayaking, and fishing Prince William County streams that support those activities.

We invite both private and public partners and members with similar objectives to join us in our efforts.  Some of our recent accomplishments include trail building and maintenance workdays at Valley View Park, Andrew Lietch Park, and James S. Long Regional Park.  See our trails directory for maps of trails within those parks.

PWTSC also appreciates the Prince William County Supervisors for the recent addition to the Comprehensive Plan of the Chapter on Parks, Open Space, and Trails.  Residents, working together, have a chance to help fulfill the best of its intentions.  This chapter can be a good first step toward realizing the recreational needs of the public in Prince William County.
