Welcome

The Black Forest Trails Association is a local community non-profit organization with the following goal: To create a safe, legitimate, non-motorized, multi-use recreational trail system that connects Black Forest neighborhoods to each other and the El Paso County Regional Trail System.

The BFTA organization works with local residents and various government agencies to ensure Black Forest area public trails are kept in good shape, new trails are included in new development plans, works with local residents to create connecting paths between our many beautiful parks and trails systems, plus much more to help keep your Black Forest area parks and trails open and pleasurable for your use.

El Paso County Master Plan

El Paso County has released the draft Master Plan for public review and comment.  This comprehensive document, when approved by the El Paso County Planning Commission, will replace the El Paso County Policy Plan and the numerous Small Area Plans dating back to the 1970’s . 

We are looking for your input on the Master Plan, particularly as it relates to trails and parks.
