The Name

In 1781, Daniel Morgan marched 800 troops through Spartanburg toward the Broad River for an historic victory in the American Revolution.



Today, we are committed to turning some of those same pathways into an integrated trail network. The Dan Trail System gives a nod to the spirit of adventure from our Revolutionary War history and will provide recreation and transportation to all users to downtown, businesses, educational institutions and community destinations.

What People Are Saying

"Spartanburg has to do this to continue to be a shining light, the great place that we all know it to be. A unified trails plan will pay dividends beyond what we can put together on paper and it secures our place among other great cities."

David Britt

Chair of the Spartanburg County Council Economic Development Committee

"The development and subsequent sustainability of running/walking trails in our communities are designed to increase activity and wellness of individuals and families. The trails’ connectivity to various neighborhoods will afford our citizens opportunities for establishing new relationships and friendships with people of diverse backgrounds."

Captain Tim Suber

"I am looking forward to the continuing improvements of the (MBF) Rail Trail. The trail is very important to encourage people to get out and exercise. Trails throughout Spartanburg provides an opportunity for our youth to focus on a healthy lifestyle!"
