CENTRAL OREGON TRAIL ALLIANCE

Developing, protecting, and enhancing the Central Oregon mountain bike experience through trail stewardship, advocacy, collaboration, and education.

​COTA is a 501c3 non-profit, volunteer organization that works in conjunction with the USFS, BLM and other land managers to build and maintain trails throughout Central Oregon.

Get Involved

COTA is a non-profit organization that focuses on the development, protection, and enhancement of the Central Oregon mountain biking experience. This goal is achieved through trail stewardship, advocacy, collaboration, and education. COTA has 6 chapters, that collectively maintain over 500 miles of singletrack trails!

  • As a 501c3, COTA is 100% privately funded through grants, corporate sponsors, membership dues, events, and individual donors.​

    ​It costs up to $50-70k to build a single mile of trail and up to $5k to maintain a single mile of trail.
    ​​
    Every financial contribution is valued as an important foundation for COTA’s success and is tax-deductible.

    At this time we do not receive any federal/state/government funding outside of competitive grants. This means we rely on membership, donation and grants for our sole operational budget.

    DONATE

  • Join the COTA community of mountain bike enthusiasts and show Land Managers that the community is invested in our local trail systems.​

    ​Yearly membership includes:
    - A COTA sticker
    - Chance to show funders and land managers that you are invested in trails
    - Shared stoke in community

    Membership is a wonderful way to support the trails we all love to ride. As well as we use our membership numbers to show donors, grantors and land managers the community we represent!
