UGATA worked closely with the City of Travelers Rest and Greenville County to create a Greenway Connector from Travelers Rest High School to the George I. Theisen Family YMCA. This connection added two miles of high quality Greenway to the Swamp Rabbit Trail network, and has provided a safe walking path for Travelers Rest’s high school students to access the high quality facilities of the YMCA. UGATA is devoted to help make the Swamp Rabbit better integrated into our communities and this project is a strong step toward achieving that goal.
This Greenway embodies the way UGATA aims to serve the community. By working together with a host of partners including YMCA of Greenville, School District of Greenville Country, City of Travelers Rest, Greenville County, Arbor Engineering, and local landowners UGATA worked to make this dream a reality. The trail opened in Fall of 2025 and has become a vital part of the broader Swamp Rabbit Trail network!
