For over six decades, Hanover benefitted from a fierce conservation ethic bottled up within a gentle, soft-spoken man. Bob Norman, co-founder and emeritus member of the Hanover Conservancy’s Board of Directors, was an early driving force shaping a green future for our community. He volunteered his time, insights, and energy for the good of the town and all its inhabitants, taking particular joy in its winged ones.

The Hanover Conservancy is pleased and proud to share with you our new video honoring our 60th anniversary milestone. During 2021, we worked with videographer and Hanover High School student Ezra McGinley-Smith to capture Hanover’s most meaningful conservation places, partners, and progress.

We are working with the landowners and the Town’s Trails Committee to focus use and maintenance on the best connections and close some lesser-used, duplicate trails. Volunteer-led trail work made great strides in Fall, 2021 and will resume in Spring, 2022. We’ve updated our map to show new routes and those no longer open on the central and southern part of the mountain. We hope this helps while you’re out on the trails this winter!

Please note that these trails are maintained by volunteers. While some trails traverse lands managed by the Hanover Conservation Commission or protected by the Hanover Conservancy, many paths cross privately-owned lands that are not conserved. Please do your part to keep these trails open by respecting these generous landowners and treating their property as you would your own.
