Town Trails

These trails are owned and maintained by towns in the Georges River watershed. In some cases, our Georges Highland Path (GHP) runs through these properties.

GHP

The Georges Highland Path (GHP) was designed with the goal of creating a through-hike from Thomaston to Frye Mountain. These trails are part of the GHP. While not owned by the land trust, we maintain sections of these trails, accessible through conservation easements and landowner agreements.

The St. George River  Trail

The St. George River is the lifeblood of the watershed that winds its way from its headwaters in Lake St. George and Frye Mountain in Waldo County to its mouth where it flows into Muscongus Bay in Knox County. The 51-mile river falls from coastal mountains through rich farmlands, ten towns, and flows through seven lakes.

 

The St. George River boasts some amazing boating opportunities including fast rips, tranquil pools under nearly closed tree canopies, and six portages. We’ve created a river trail map covering 36 miles for those interested in canoeing and kayaking this beautiful river. The map shows the river in four sections and highlights access points, rapids, portages and historical points of interest. Let’s go paddling!
