TrailKids is a fully sponsored youth educational program provided by local nonprofit, Durango Trails. The program is designed to inspire curiosity, stewardship, and an appreciation for natural lands in area youth through outdoor, hands-on science education and trailwork. 

Focused on Durango-area middle school students, TrailKids offers a variety of one hour, half-day, and full day programs for 6th-8th grade science classes in partnership with Durango School District 9-R. Each course is tailored to Colorado Academic standards and focuses on Durango’s unique ecosystems and geology to better understand the importance of trails. TrailKids operates in conjunction with Durango School District 9-R Middle School science teachers.
