At 1,000 miles (and growing), the Alabama Scenic River Trail is the longest scenic river trail in a single state. But there’s more to the trail than recreation. ASRT is reconnecting communities with their rivers in ways that makes life better for everyone. Members are working to provide the essential fuel points that will allow powerboat tourism into Alabama’s interior. ASRT is working to clean our rivers and to help river cities provide access by boat to exciting downtown culture and amenities. In addition, the group is working to put a campground every ten miles along the trail and to promote small businesses that depend on tourism and hospitality along our rivers. Most of all, ASRT is working to make river tourism a source of clean, sustainable Alabama jobs. And, they are working to make it all happen safely.
