Trail status reflects the current conditions. If the status has not changed, this means the trail conditions have not changed. Trail stewards check frequently and update the status as quickly as possible when conditions change.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please Check the Trail Status
Please do your part to preserve and protect the trails, which are easily damaged if used when muddy. Before you visit a trail, please check its Open/Closed status. When a trail is closed, it is closed for all users.
Our trail conditions list contains Urban Trail Co managed trails in the Kansas City metro as well a few trails managed by fellow trail building organizations just a bit outside the metro.
There's an app for that!
Urban Trail Co uses RainoutLine to manage a list of current trail status. For the quickest up to date trail conditions, search for and install the RainoutLine 2017 mobile app from Google Play or the App Store. Then search for Urban Trail Co and save us as a favorite! You can also set mobile notifications for individual trails.
