Completed in 2016, the trail is a footpath and crosses the land of more than 60 private landowners. Stewards check their trail sections four times a year between April and October, with the exact timing being up to each steward.

Stewards check on the trail’s condition and are expected to do light clearing and refreshing paint blazes, according to a news release from Buck O’Herin with the coalition.

Trail sections range between two to more than four miles. No experience is needed, and training is provided. The trail’s existence is dependent upon volunteers to keep this community resource open and in good hiking condition.

The Unity-based coalition also seeks a volunteer to help manage the group’s website.

To learn more, email O’Herin at boherin1954@gmail.com or visit hillstosea.org.
