Countryside Conservancy
protecting & connecting greenspace for the public benefit, now and for future generations.
ABOUT US
PROTECTED LANDS
Countryside Conservancy uses two forms of protected lands: preserves and conservation easements. Preserves are lands owned by the Conservancy and managed to protect their conservation values. Conservation easements are legal agreements between the Conservancy and private landowners. To date, Countryside has permanently protected more than 2,500 acres from development in Lackawanna, Susquehanna & Wyoming counties.
TRAILS
TRAILS ON PRESERVES
Countryside Conservancy manages 1,190 acres of lands and waters to protect their conservation value. Most of these acres are open to the public for visitation, and many have trails. We thank our many volunteers, especially the Lackawanna State Park Trail Crew, for the countless hours they have put in on trail construction and maintenance!
