The Roxbury Land Trust (RLT) has been dedicated to preserving the rural character of Roxbury, Connecticut, since its establishment in 1970, safeguarding nearly 4,000 acres of woodlands, waterways, and farmland. With over 30 miles of hiking trails and 32 distinct preserves, RLT offers a plethora of opportunities for passive recreation and inspires a connection with nature.
Among its treasured sites is Mine Hill Preserve, a former 19th-century iron-making complex that now spans 360 acres and features historical landmarks such as a restored blast furnace, granite quarries, and abandoned mine shafts. RLT not only focuses on conservation but also provides educational programming to engage individuals of all ages in appreciation for the natural world.
