Essex County Trail Association
Dedicated to the preservation and maintenance of open trails
in our community.
The Essex County Trail Association is dedicated to the preservation
and maintenance of open trails in our local communities for the
purpose of passive recreation and the benefit of the environment.
ECTA works to build coalitions with national and local associations,
to serve as a liaison between membership and land owners, and to
encourage responsible trail use.
The ECTA maintains trails throughout Essex County, Massachusetts.
Our mission is to “Preserve, Maintain, Respect” and
we work tirelessly with landowners, conservation organizations,
town officials and trail users to ensure access to natural places
and open spaces remains part of Essex County’s rich heritage.
