The GRTA preserves, protects, and promotes open space,
historical trails and the tradition of horseback riding for our community and future generations.
Come enjoy our Nichols Nature Preserve, a 94-acre property with meadows, forests, ponds and swamps. Here, volunteer conservationists have ongoing projects that help some endangered insect pollinators and a variety of bird populations. This diverse and beautiful property is open to all nature enthusiasts for walking, horseback riding, fishing, jogging, bird watching, cross-country skiing etc. Dogs must be leashed at all times, as they scare horses, making it dangerous for riders.
