We are a non-profit group dedicated to the preservation, enhancement and acquisition of multi-purpose, passive-use, recreational trails on public and private land in Connecticut and southern New England. While the Conservancy was founded by equestrian enthusiasts, we seek to support all open space and trail initiatives, not just those used by horses and their riders. Bridle paths have many uses including dog walking, mountain biking, and general hiking.

By managing, educating and cooperating with others to create opportunities to facilitate and preserve equestrian activities that complement the environment, the Conservancy strives to keep recreational land available for present and future generations to enjoy.
