The Farmington Canal Heritage Trail, a collaborative effort between the Farmington Valley Trails Council and the Farmington Canal Rail-to-Trail Association, aims to build, maintain, and enhance a network of off-road multi-use trails throughout central Connecticut. With a primary focus on completing the 56-mile Farmington Canal Heritage Trail and the 16.1-mile Farmington River Trail, the organization engages in various community initiatives, including trail maintenance and volunteer programs.
As a not-for-profit organization, it relies on the support of its members and volunteers to fund construction, maintenance, and improvements, including trail amenities like bike repair stations. Through active participation in local events and outreach, the organization fosters community involvement and promotes safe trail use while advocating for the protection of the scenic landscape.
