“Rangeley Lakes Heritage Trust is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and preserving natural areas, scenic beauty, critical wildlife habitat and the cultural heritage that make this region of our state so special.” -rlht.org

One of the ways for the public to enjoy the hard work accomplished by the Rangeley Lakes Heritage Trust is by checking out one of the many parcels of preserved land in the region. This can include fishing on the legendary Rapid River, bird watching in one of the wildlife sanctuaries, and plenty of opportunities for hiking as well.

In this short video we stopped by the Bonney Point Trails. This easy 1 mile loop hike with lake access can be reached by turning off of Rt 4 just north of the town of Rangeley onto Bonney Point road. The trailhead and parking area is on the left. Once at the trailhead, you’ll find a signpost with maps and all the info you’ll need to explore Bonney Point. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife, and Enjoy! Find out more information at rlht.org.
