The bill, S. 557, is a Senate Resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to officially recognize June 2025 as "South Carolina Trails Month." The resolution aims to encourage residents to utilize the state's extensive network of trails for walking, cycling, and hiking, highlighting the numerous health, educational, and social benefits associated with their use. It emphasizes the connection these trails provide to South Carolina's natural beauty, including its mountains, lakes, swamps, and beaches.

The resolution also notes the health benefits of spending time on these trails, such as reducing diabetes and obesity, improving cardiovascular health, and enhancing mental well-being through stress reduction and social interaction. Additionally, it points out that maintaining local trails can foster community pride and strengthen social ties. The resolution aligns with the national initiative led by various federal agencies to support National Trails Day on June 7, 2025, and expresses South Carolina's commitment to promoting similar activities within the state.
