This created a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to develop a new regional, 68-mile-long trail stretching through 5 Indiana counties (Clark, Floyd, Lawrence, Orange, and Washington), and connecting nine Indiana towns and cities (Bedford, Mitchell, Saltillo, Campbellsburg, Salem, New Pekin, Borden, Orleans, and New Albany). If completed, this would be the longest, continuous recreation trail in Indiana, creating immense recreation and economic opportunities for the region. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/60a53a68b247c6578b6ee1b5/t/60f99194accc405b10c95516/1626972753635/unsplash-image-sb0Nt_Sk0bo.jpg Trails and Connectivity - South Monon Freedom Trail The City of New Albany is excited and humbled to have an opportunity to not only bring a new amenity to the region, but to reimagine the former New Albany – Salem railroad while paying homage to its significance as part of the Underground Railroad.
