Trails Throughout Coralville

Coralville has over 20 miles of recreational trails and over extra-wide sidewalks that connect throughout the community. As Coralville grows, we have identified about 40 additional miles of trail which could be part of future development.

Trail development is funded in two ways in Coralville:

• Through state and federal grant programs with match money from local hotel / motel taxes
• Through working with developers as subdivisions are planned to place dual-purpose trails for recreational use and for sewer manhole access
