Royal River Conservation Trust’s mission is to protect the natural, recreational, scenic, agricultural, and historic resources of the Royal River region for current and future generations.  RRCT envisions ecologically healthy lands and waters that support recreational and commercial activities for all of us forever.  In one of the fastest-growing regions of New England, RRCT has protected 6,020 acres of land including 1,120 acres in 16 Trust-owned preserves and 2,010 acres through 62 Trust-held conservation easements – and is actively pursuing new projects to add to these totals.  RRCT has assisted with the creation or expansion of 18 municipal and state parks, preserves, and wildlife areas totaling 2,890 acres. The Trust actively manages over 7 miles of Royal River shoreline and 25 miles of hiking trails within the watershed municipalities of Auburn, Durham, Gray, New Gloucester, North Yarmouth, Pownal, and Yarmouth.
