The GRTA Trails


Our trails are interwoven on private property, town roads and public parks. The trails on private property are for horseback riders only..... no hikers, bikers,dog walkers, etc. The significance of our dependency on private landowners is immeasurable. When you come in contact with a land owner, a pedestrian or whomever, you are representing riding and the GRTA in the eyes of that person.

We own and maintain the 93 acres Nichols Preserve. The preserve is open to the public for hiking, jogging, bird watching, horseback riding, fishing and cross-country skiing. It is a beautiful composite of meadows, ponds, forest and a red maple swamp.

The GRTA employs a full time Trail Manager to maintain the extensive trail system.

RULES:

  1. Be considerate and courteous at all times.
    YOU ARE A GUEST ON PRIVATE LAND.
  2. No dogs are allowed on GRTA trails.
  3. No smoking or littering in any way.
  4. No bikes allowed on GRTA trails.
  5. Always stay on marked GRTA trails. Landowners have given permission to ride through their property on designated trails only!! An open field is not an invitation for your DAILY GALLOP
  6. Remove manure from driveways and private roads.
  7. Observe the privacy of landowners when passing close to homes.
  8. Smile, wave, and say thank you to drivers who slow down when passing you on a road.
