Fox Field & Forest Accessibility Improvements & Accessible Trails
In 2025, the Upper Valley Trails Alliance met with members of the RTT Task Force to access Fox Field and the surrounding forest trail system on June 13. Their assessment report is available here:

Outdoor Recreation
Our community has an abundance of outdoor recreation resources. We are walking, mapping, and exploring our community!
Our team is collaborating with others, taking inventory of existing resources in our town and in the region. We are thinking about how we can better highlight our resources, as well as identify what we could add to our community.
Trails
Our team is connecting with local resources to create a map and wayfinding systems (signs, information, and maps) for the recreation resources in town that both locals and tourists can easily find.
Our team is gathering facts about the railway, connecting with others involved, and evaluating our options as a community.
Tourism
We are working to connect residents and visitors to local businesses via trails, signage, and other resources. Working from our asset mapping effort we aim to produce pamphlets and maps about trails, businesses, historic landmarks, parking, and activities.
Interested in getting involved? Join us!
