DOGWOOD TRAIL - April 10-16, 2023: Sponsored by the Paducah Civic Beautification Board, this traditional celebration of spring will reflect the hope and perseverance of our community. The Trail is a beautiful drive by day or night, when many homeowners spotlight their trees. The trail dates are projected by the Paducah Civic Beautification Board (CBB), but Mother Nature determines peak bloom!
DOGWOOD TRAIL BICYCLE TOUR - April 10, 2023: The annual group ride, coordinated by BikeWorld, Bikes & Fitness, returns. Starting and ending at BikeWorld, the trail is marked to assist with wayfinding.
The dogwood trail in Paducah began in April 1964 when the Civic Beautification Board started the tradition of touring Paducah in bloom. Inspired by the beauty of Knoxville, Tennessee's dogwoods, the trail is now a driving tour traversing Historic Downtown, Lower Town Arts District and other residential neighborhoods. The tour showcases Dogwood, Japanese Maple, Red Bud and Weeping Cherry trees as well as blooming garden areas and other flowering species.
