Lake County Konocti Regional Trails

Lake County is developing a Konocti Regional Trails Plan, which will guide the county in creating a network of trails and community pathways on and around Clear Lake.

When complete, the Konocti Regional Trails Plan will guide the county in establishing needed bike lanes, sidewalks and walking paths in the unincorporated areas of the county, as well as hiking, biking and equestrian trails throughout the county.

The Plan will include existing trails on BLM land, in our National Forest and in our State and county and city parks.

The plan will also incorporate:
• Future hiking, biking and equestrian trails.
• Safe routes between neighborhoods, work and school.
• Connections to water paddling trails on Clear Lake

To assist us with the planning process we would like your input. Please take a few minutes to complete this survey by answering the following fifteen questions:
