Trails & Public Access
Trails and public access to outdoor recreation are essential to the health of Maine’s environment, local economies, and quality of life. Through policy advocacy, partnerships, and public engagement, NRCM works to identify collaborative, community-based solutions that invest in maintenance and expansion of trails, expand public access, and support our growing outdoor recreation industry.
