Recreational Trail Slopes & Walls

Stabilize slopes, embankments, and trail-adjacent structures.

Stabilize trailside slopes and embankments with systems that help support vegetation, control erosion, and blend into natural surroundings.

Trail embankments may be part of the existing terrain or created through cut-and-fill during construction. These areas are often prone to erosion, sloughing, washouts, and surface instability. The GEOWEB® Soil Stabilization System reinforces slopes by confining infill within a 3D cellular structure, helping protect trail-adjacent areas while supporting long-term stability.

From shared-use paths to backcountry trails, the GEOWEB system can be designed with vegetated or non-vegetated infill for slope protection or used to build green retaining walls that support trail access, aesthetics, and site performance.
