WinMan Trails: A Year-Round Destination Trail System Contributing to the Local Economy
WinMan Trails is a public, 501(c)3 nonprofit adventure park in Winchester that provides professionally managed trails and amenities that inspire active, outdoor lifestyles. Its facilities offer year-round opportunities for biking, hiking, skiing, snowshoeing or just chilling — whatever moves visitors to smile and share joy with others.
WinMan prioritizes accessibility and is proud to be a free public trail system, ensuring everyone can experience its trails’ beauty and adventure without barriers. With well-maintained, easy-to-navigate trails, the expansive trail system is carefully curated for groups and families to enjoy together.
Intentional programming throughout the year offers training clinics, immersive camps, competitions and social outings for members of the community. All these opportunities encourage WinMan users to get better and grow stronger together.
While the trails are free to use, WinMan is an economic boon. The vast majority of trail users are non-locals whose visits generate significant spending for local businesses like hotels, campgrounds, restaurants and others. Three-quarters of visitors cite WinMan as the primary reason for traveling to the area.
The result: 55,000+ visits, adding over $4 million annually to the local economy.
