We’re super excited that Kenton County is taking the next steps toward providing more trail access and outdoor recreation opportunities. This is a huge win for the region and a major milestone for the vision of an interconnected trail system across Northern Kentucky.

A Transformational Trail Project for the Region

Once a golf course, Fox Run Park was acquired over 20 years ago using Land and Water Conservation Funds. Since then, it’s remained open for passive recreation, such as hiking, biking, walking, fishing, and wildlife observation.

Now, thanks to the new county budget allocation, Fox Run Park is being reimagined as a destination for sustainable outdoor recreation.

Kenton County Parks and Recreation has hired Human Nature and Dirt Artisans, two nationally recognized firms, to lead the design and trail planning process. CORA is proud to be a partner on this project and is currently helping identify ways to connect nearby neighborhoods and greenspaces to Fox Run and Lincoln Ridge Parks.


By converting a golf course into a vibrant public space, Kenton County is proving that sustainable land use can benefit everyone—from mountain bikers and trail runners to families out for a nature walk.

We can’t wait to ride the new trails at Fox Run Park. Stay tuned for updates as this exciting project moves forward.
