Since 1996, the Cincinnati Off-Road Alliance (CORA) has been a driving force behind the creation and expansion of MTB-friendly, multi-use trails in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Thanks to the unwavering dedication of trailblazers like you, we now proudly steward over 115 miles of trails across 13 systems—with more on the way in 2025! Make a contribution to CORA today!
Each trail in our network tells a story, a testament to the passion and persistence of the people who brought it to life. Can you remember the first trail you visited? Think about the thousands of people who’ve shared that same joy on those paths. From visionary beginnings in the 1990s to today, your advocacy has left an indelible impact and generated access to various landscapes.
The lake views at East Fork State Park
The sweeping landscapes of Fairfield at Harbin Park
The urban escape of Mount Airy’s trail sanctuary
The youthful energy of Premier Health Bike Park, with its skills park and dirt jumps
The diverse terrain and streams at Hueston Woods State Park
These trails—and many more—are places of connection, adventure, and transformation. One ride, one hike, or one run can change someone’s life.
What’s behind these incredible trails? Countless volunteer hours paired with the essential machinery, tools, and resources needed to make them a reality. Bulldozers, excavators, chainsaws, and other trail-building tools power every mile of progress—but they come at a cost. Donations like yours have helped purchase this vital equipment and keep it well-maintained, ensuring it’s ready to tackle the toughest terrain. Equipment maintenance is an ongoing need to keep the gears of progress turning and trails in top condition.
This year, we continue to honor the legacy of CORA’s founders while laying the groundwork for future trails. Beyond trail construction, advocacy remains vital to expanding our network and ensuring our community thrives. You can play a key role by sharing your story—what makes the trails special to you—and inspiring others to discover the beauty waiting just around the bend.
