      Bangor Land Trust is a nonprofit organization that has conserved over 800 acres of land with public access in the Bangor area.

      Bangor Land Trust purchased this 80.5 acre property in 2006-2007 with support from the Land for Maine’s Future Program and North American Wetlands Conservation Act Funds. It contains 18.4 acres of wetlands, including the northeast tip of Penjajawoc Marsh (a state significant wetland), a highly productive vernal pool, and a tributary marsh to Penjajawoc Marsh. BLT did extensive trail remediation to protect the wetlands and make the trails more pleasant for people to use. These trails connect to the old Veazie railroad bed, which you can then follow northward to Walden-Parke Preserve or the Bangor City Forest. A trail guide for this preserve is available on our website and at the BLT office. Pets on leash are permitted.

      Directions: From Stillwater Avenue near the Bangor Mall, drive north about a mile on the Kittredge Road to the end of the pavement. You will see a BLT kiosk on the left. A printed guide is available from Bangor Land Trust.
