What did past attendees think?
Bringing trails and trail people together regularly to share insights, research and inspiration is an essential requirement to keep trails sustainable, the TRC Sustainable Trails Conference does just that!
Big thanks to all the TRC team for hosting a fantastic conference. A lot of fun was had spending time connecting with industry colleagues, sharing ideas and learning of all the exciting trail projects out there. It reinforced what a great industry we all work in and I look forward to attending again next year.
Fantastic conference that was well organized, hands on and relevant to the growth of the industry, excited for the next one.
The Sustainable Trails Conference 2022 provided access to the world’s leaders across the trails sector and industry. Talking trails, the ups, and downs, and every step in between to plan, develop and maintain world class trail assets. Time to get on the sustainable trail, take that long walk, run, hike or ride, and learn from the best!
TRC have delivered another fantastic Sustainable Trails Conference in 2022, with a range of great speakers from across Australia and New Zealand covering a wide variety of relevant and interesting trails-related topics, excellent field trips and a really well-organised and well-catered event overall. Will definitely be back.
