      Together in collaboration Inland Woods +Trails, The Trust for Public Land and the Northern Forest Center, along with strong support from the Town of Bethel and area citizens, worked towards the creation of the 978 acre Bethel Community Forest. On June 18, 2019, Mahoosuc Pathways purchased the land that it now owns on behalf of the Town of Bethel, and will manage the property for conservation, recreation, and wildlife.

      Community Forest Trails Guidelines
      - The Forest is open for everyone to enjoy.
      - No overnight camping.
      - Please carry out your litter, including dog waste.
      - No biking on hiking trails.
      - "Tribute" bike trail is one-way (please ride clockwise).
      - Park in designated parking areas only. Do not drive past the formal parking lot or park on the Daisy Bryant Road.
      - In winter months, please use the parking lot on the North Road, just past Coleman Concrete on the right.

      We're so excited to share the Community Forest with everyone. We look forward to seeing you on the land
      Primary Trail Type: All-Mountain & Downhill
