Trails are now closed for the summer season

November 8, 2019

The network will open for the winter season as soon as conditions allow

Letter from KTA's Executive Director:

Dear Friends,

Thank you for an incredible 25 th Summer season at Kingdom Trails!

Many of you traveled far and wide or even just around the corner to celebrate, others

supported the trails through memberships, donations and volunteering of time and

energy, 97 of you are private landowners who graciously allow KTA access to your

beautiful properties, and for that we are grateful.

Please know that all these contributions energize Kingdom Trails to strive toward our

mission providing education and recreation opportunities to foster the health of our

community, surrounding environment and regional economy.

We are especially thankful to those who donated to the Pave The Way campaign! Your

gifts allow KTA and the Town of Burke to rehabilitate East Darling Hill Road making it

safer for our community and visitors, drivers and riders. We have only $15,000 left to

raise!

Our 25th Anniversary marks a celebration of the incredible impact that our trails and all

those involved have on this wonderful community. Congratulations everyone and thank

you for your commitment to a successful next season and beyond!

We are so grateful,

Abby

Executive Director

Kingdom Trail Association

Vermont State Treasurer, Mike Pieciak, speaks at the 2025 Outdoor Recreation Day at the Statehouse

KT is taking action—on the trails and in the Statehouse!

By Abby Long • February 13, 2025

KT is taking action—on the trails and in the Statehouse! This 2025 Legislative Session, KT is teaming up with other amazing trail organizations through the Vermont Trails & Greenway Council, to advocate for H.147 a bill to establish the Recreational Trails Compensation Study. Why does this matter? Vermont’s outdoor recreation economy generates $2.1B annually, nearly 5% of the state’s GDP, that's 2nd in the nation after Hawaii (Go VT!) KT alone drives $10M in economic impact annually. Therefore, the state must recognize and incentivize these generous private landowners, including the 106 who make KT possible and allow public access to trails.
