Loon Echo Land Trust owns and maintains 10 properties for public use. Our preserves have over 31 miles of trail and are open to the public for walking, hiking, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, hunting, fishing, and on designated trails, motorized use and mountain biking.
As a local, non-profit organization, we ask that all preserve users consider making a donation to the Trust so that we can continue to manage and care for our lands. You may donate at a trail head, or online by clicking here.
