LANL Trails Management Program

Recreational trails use at Los Alamos National Laboratory has always been highly valued as one of the benefits of working and living in Los Alamos County. Laboratory trails are uniquely located on Department of Energy (DOE) land. In order to maintain public access, the LANL Trails Management Program ensures trail use does not interfere with the security of LANL operations and protection of resources.

The trails program adapts trails use at LANL to changing conditions and situations in a responsive manner. These efforts maintain the recreational functionality of DOE-owned lands so that they may remain open to all members of the public for non-motorized recreation, while remaining in compliance with federal laws and LANL operational constraints.

Trail users should not attempt to clear downed trees or other major obstructions on any Laboratory trails, as the trails are on DOE land and some trails present unique hazards, which are posted at each trailhead kiosk.

Please contact the Trails Management Program at trails@lanl.gov with any concerns about the trails, including maintenance needs, map or signage issues, presence of unfamiliar objects, or suspicious activity. Let us know what you would like to see from the trails program.
