Trail Policies and Etiquette
There is inherent risk in being outdoors. Please practice caution on our trails and use at your own risk. While enjoying the preserves, please help us protect their natural resources by keeping these things in mind:
- Stay on Trail
- Daylight Use Only
- No Fires, Camping or Motorized Vehicles
- Hunting is allowed on some preserves. Hunting is by permission only. Hunters are required to follow all state and local rules. Registering to hunt on a preserve is required every year.
- Carry in – Carry Out – Trails do not have trash cans or bathroom facilities. Please do not litter.
- Dogs – Dogs are welcome on Kennebunk Land Trust properties. Responsible dog owners will please clean up and remove from premises all pet waste. Be respectful of the environment and of other users, not all walkers are dog lovers. Pets who chase wildlife, or who jump up on or intimidate strangers, are best kept on leash.
- Mountain Biking – Some Kennebunk Land Trust trails are appropriate for mountain biking. While allowed, we ask that you consider surface conditions before riding to prevent rutting and trail damage. Off-trail riding and unsafe riding will not be tolerated. Riders must be sensitive to other users.
- Habitat – Many Kennebunk Land Trust trails pass through habitat for a variety of resident and migrating wildlife. Please be respectful.
- Monitoring – Kennebunk Land Trust volunteers monitor and maintain the trails. Should you find downed trees, vandalism or inappropriate uses on any part of the preserves or trails, please contact the Trust.
- Remember To Do A Tick Check After Walking Any Preserves!
- No motorized vehicles.This applies to all KLT land.
