Parks & Trails New York and Reconnect Rochester are thrilled to host the 2027 Empire State Greenways Conference, where changemakers, visionary leaders, practitioners, and advocates will gather for a dynamic program to advance the greenway trail network across New York State. Hosted at the Rochester Hyatt Regency, this conference comes at a pivotal time for New York’s greenways network as PTNY and partners push for the next major investment in our multi-use trails.

Join a powerful network of volunteers, professionals, and leaders in the greenways movement for three days of inspiring keynotes and panels, interactive field workshops, and opportunities to network with likeminded people working every day to expand and enhance access to transportation and recreation for all New Yorkers.
