Volunteer with the xTx
The Cross Texas Trail (xTx) is one of the most ambitious outdoor projects in Texas history—a long-distance, multi-use trail that will connect towns, public lands, and people across our state.
And here’s the truth: this trail will only be built if the community builds it.
Whether you live along the route or hundreds of miles away, there’s a role for you.

“I believe this [route] will transform Texas.”
-Rhea Wallace, xTx Volunteer Ground Proofer
