Welcome to the Rogue Valley Equestrian Trails Association

The Rogue Valley Equestrian Trails Association, is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of Equestrian Trails and Facilities throughout the Rogue Valley

Rogue Valley Equestrian Trails Association (originally Bear Creek Greenway Equestrian Assn.) is an advocacy group made up of local horse owners and trail riders of all ages who seek a safe place to ride without trailering a great distance. We are a diverse group of people who care about the future of Jackson County and the preservation of equestrian access to areas historically used by horses.

We raise funds and work hard to build and maintain natural trails within Jackson County. We promote, organize events, and work many hours to help maintain equestrian trails throughout the Rogue Valley. We also coordinate with local cities to develop new equestrian trails in the Rogue Valley

We believe trails are the backbone of our parks and open spaces. Equestrian trails provide us with the opportunity to explore, relax, and learn all in our own backyard.

Our goal is not just to insure that we have trails to ride, but to make certain that our children and their children have the same opportunity.

Current RVETA News

Equestrians... We need your help; the powers that be are trying to exclude equine use from specific areas of the new Rogue River Trail. All interested equestrians should be at the next URRST meeting, held at the Rogue Valley Council of Governments office located in Central Point, OR (link to map) Please try to attend the meeting so the County understands that we expect to be included along the entire trail network. The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 7, 2010 at 5:30 pm
Bear Creek Equestrian Trail will be closed for a while due to the construction of a new bicycle path; however Jackson County has assured RVETA that the equestrian trail will be replaced as soon as the bicycle trail is complete (we can only hope).
