Help Us Build the Eastern Trail in Southern Maine.... Join the Eastern Trail Alliance !!

Who Are We?

We are friends of the Eastern Trail, now being developed to run from Portsmouth, New Hampshire to Portland, Maine. Our shared vision is to build this wonderful trail resource.

We are citizens of southern Maine -- hikers, bikers, horseback riders and outdoor enthusiasts. We are family members, commuting workers, municipal employees, and just plain interested folk. We are civic-minded businesses and organizations!

We need your support and your involvement to build and to maintain this trail. There are many exiting activities under way now, and more to come soon.  We need your support and your contributions, both financial and otherwise.
