The trail is approximately 26.3 miles long. The trailhead is at the end of Porlier Street in Green Bay and follows the Fox River south through Allouez, De Pere, Greenleaf, Forest Junction, and ends at Ott Road, north of Hilbert.
The Friends of the Fox River Trail announced the launch of a capital campaign to repave the 22-year-old Fox River Trail and expand the pavement 3.4 miles into Greenleaf. The goal is to raise $300,000 to complete funding needed (in addition to grants, trail passes and other existing funding), to begin construction in 2024/25. To kick off the campaign, The Green Bay Packers Foundation has generously made a donation that will match up to $50,000 from public donations as part of their Give Back initiative.
A part of this project’s combined efforts with Brown County Parks will include the replacement of aging culverts, the addition of some amenities, and a new parking lot in the rural portion of the trail. The fundraising will ensure the safety of current users, entice new users, and promote business and tourism from downtown Green Bay to Greenleaf and well into the Fox River Valley.
We hope that you will help support the Friends of the Fox River Trail fundraising efforts to assure that this premier recreational and transportation trail is maintained for generations to come!
Donations may be made in your name or in honor of a friend or loved one. You can donate now through this website or through the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation. If you have any questions about this project contact the Friends of the Fox River Trail by email at friendsoffrt@yahoo.com
