# What it is

A trail is a path, usually through a natural area, made mainly for walkers, horse riders and non-motorized vehicles such as bicycles [wiki-trail].

# When and how

Opening hours and rules differ from place to place. Each listed place's page gives the hours and the details its sources state.

# How a place gets on this list

Public places are listed under the [inclusion rule](/about/inclusion-rule) when they would make less sense anywhere else, and the editor rules on borderline cases; each page cites at least two sources, and the editor and the [Neighborhood Mayors](/mayors) check new places and corrections [editorial-policy].
