Saluda Grade Trail Celebration

Join PAL and Conserving Carolina on Thursday, July 31, at the historic Tryon Depot (22 Depot St.) for a community celebration marking the next big step toward the Saluda Grade Trail!

 5:30–6:15 PM – Public Remarks & Ceremony
Gather on the Depot porch as we mark this exciting milestone with brief remarks and a ceremonial spike removal.

 6:15–7:30 PM – Community Celebration
Stick around for live music, light snacks, trail displays, and a toast to what’s ahead! Tryon is a designated social district — grab a drink from a nearby bar or restaurant and enjoy the festivities. Make it a night out with dinner at one of Tryon’s great downtown spots, just steps away.

 Wherever you live along the rail line or in the Saluda Grade region, we’d love to celebrate with you. This trail is for all of us — and this is just the beginning.
