Together, We're Changing the World. One Trail, one bike, one hike at a time.

Weekly Massanutten Western Slope Dig Days are on Thursday evenings through October 15! (with a break in the summer)

No experience necessary and we supply the tools

What: Weekly Dig Days on the Western Slope

📍 WHERE: Western Slope of Massanutten. Enter through the main gate (by the horses – the next entrance down the hill from the Western Slope parking lot) and follow the “trail work” signs straight up the road.

📅 WHEN: Thursdays April – Oct 15

Why: Because trails don’t build (or maintain) themselves—and when we dig together, we build more than just great singletrack. We build community.

🙋 HOW: Sign up, bring a friend, wear work clothes, and we’ll provide the tools and good vibes. No experience is needed. Wear long pants and closed-toed shoes; bring gloves if you have them.
These evenings are fun and productive and a chance to give back to the land and community that gives us so much.

What to bring: Closed toes shoes, gloves, water, long pants.

Join us every Thursday for Massanutten Western Slope
Volunteer Dig Days. Everyone is welcome, and you can follow our red trail work signs to the worksite.

The Big Dig Day is a volunteer trail-building event on the Western Slope of Massanutten. Volunteers will work together to build new trails and or maintain existing trails.

This is more than a volunteer day! It will be a fun, family-friendly day in the woods with friends old and new! Bonus… you can earn your annual Western Slope trail pass volunteer hours in a single day!
Prior trail experience is NOT necessary.

On-site training and instruction will allow volunteers to work safely, confidently, and effectively.

• What: A celebration of our volunteers while we work on improving the Western Slope trails.
• Where: Massanutten’s Western Slope near Keezletown
• Where do I park? Parking will be in the main parking lot or the field near the pavilion. Please be aware that there is an event going on on the same day, and we will be sharing parking.
• When: Saturday, April 25 from 11 am to 3 pm
• What to wear: Sturdy closed-toe shoes, long pants, gloves, and water!

We will get together at 11 am to go over a plan for the day and then break up into groups to work on project sites. We will have food ready at 3 pm for our post-event gathering and hangout.
We’ll grill burgers and have drinks for folks and other snacks and food.

RSVPs ARE REQUIRED. Once you’ve signed up, you will receive email notifications with details about the day, including where we will meet. We need a headcount for food/drink and to give you some thank-you gifts.

Walk, Bike & Roll to School Day provides opportunities for children to interact and socialize with their peers, teaches pedestrian and bicycle safety skills, and creates positive experiences that encourage active and independent transportation later in life.

Most of all, it’s a party parade..all before school even starts! This is a partnership with Harrisonburg City Safe Routes to School Program.

However, we hope that wherever you are, you will join in on the fun!

To protect the safety of kids, routes will be shared with the families through each of the schools.

*If you would like to lead a Harrisonburg“walk or bike bus” on May 6th, please contact
