About the North Star Rails to Trails Society

A volunteer board of directors from the Kimberley / Cranbrook / Wycliffe area manages the NorthStar Rails 2 Trails.  The board’s mandate covers trail management, including grant/operational fund sourcing and trail promotion.  The board works closely with the cities of Cranbrook and Kimberley and the Regional District of East Kootenay to tackle large-scale and long-term trail repairs.  The cities of Cranbrook and Kimberley are responsible for trail maintenance. The board continues to work on improving and promoting the trail.

If you are interested in joining the board, volunteering on the trail, have comments, concerns or questions, please feel free to contact the board through the website.
