About the Greenwich Riding and Trails Association: At the turn of the 20th century, a group of Greenwich land owners and riders began to work together with developers and the Town of Greenwich to maintain and preserve some of the original trails in the area, trails that had been created by the local Native Americans and then by the early settlers, while also building some new trails. In 1914 , seven landowners formed the Greenwich Trails Association and in 1953, it became the Greenwich Riding and Trails Association, a chartered nonprofit. The GRTA coninues to preserve, protect and promote open space, historic trails and the tradition of horseback riding. We organize several annual events as fundraisers to support this mission. Our Nichols Nature Preserve, donated to the GRTA by Herbert J. Nichols, Jr. and others as open conservation land, is a 94-acre property with meadows, forests, ponds and swamps.
