Walk for Conservation Homepage

Join us Sunday, October 12 for the 1st Annual GBLC Champions Walk for Conservation! 

GBLC’s Walk for Conservation is a community event celebrating the importance of Trails for All.

This fundraiser for Great Barrington Land Conservancy is aimed at supporting local conservation and trail stewardship. Community Trails are essential to community health. A strong town-wide trail system includes accessible trails that allow everyone to experience nature and to connect to recreation and fellow community members. In this way we can support the physical health and mental health of a diverse community each and every day.

Great Barrington Land Conservancy is a volunteer-based, non-profit organization. Participant registration and sponsorship donations are fully tax-deductible.

For over 30 years the Great Barrington Land Conservancy has added to the beauty of the Berkshires by promoting land conservation, farm preservation, and community trails. In September 2020 GBLC opened the new Riverfront Trail which continues access along the Housatonic River south of from the ever popular River Walk. Families enjoy hiking along the Lake Mansfield Trails, which are enhanced annually, and swimming, canoeing and skating on the Lake.  The Pfeiffer Arboretum offers a walking loop that includes an observation platform with a beautiful view of Long Pond.
