But the trails can\u2019t just be in a straight line, they say.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you talk about trails, they should be meandering,\u201d says Dean Naef, president of Rise Communities, based in Katy, Texas. \u201cNo one wants to be on a linear trail where they can see what\u2019s coming. We want curvilinear where the landscape changes. We like to create monuments along the way, respites to work out on, or take a rest to enjoy art.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The New Home Company\u2019s upcoming Russell Ranch community in Folsom, Calif., is adding mountain biking and hiking trails that rise and fall with the topography. A community known as Daybreak, outside of Salt Lake City, will use its mountain backdrop to have a looping walking trail and a separate bicycle lane for riders. The community also features public gardens, kayaking, and 30 miles of trails.<\/p>\n<p>Jessica Lautz, managing director of survey research at the National Association of REALTORS\u00ae, says that millennials are a big driver behind the trend of more nature incorporated into developments. More millennials rate living near parks and recreation facilities more important than do older generations.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: \u201cA New Kind of Green: Developers Trade Golf Courses for Hiking Trails, Gardens to Draw Buyers,\u201d Construction Dive (April 18, 2017)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/feedproxy.google.com\/~r\/DailyRealEstateNews\/~3\/DBLc62kyFIc\/walking-trails-overtake-golf-communities\"> link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A golf course is no longer the showpiece of a master-planned community.
