Otsego Land Trust TRAILS
About
Otsego Land Trust TRAILS is the public-facing side of Otsego Land Trust, a Cooperstown-based conservation group that preserves the distinctive rural character of the Otsego region. It protects healthy lands and clean waters by working with private landowners to conserve their land permanently and by acquiring land to open to the public.
The trust maintains several conservation areas where visitors are welcome to observe nature quietly and enjoy low-impact recreation such as walking, hiking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. They are spread across the region, from Cooperstown to Richfield Springs and Roseboom.
