Thayer Brook Preserve

Part of a state wildlife sanctuary, the 147-acre Thayer Brook Preserve in Gray is owned and managed by Royal River Conservation Trust.

The Preserve abuts Libby Hill Forest trails and contains sections of Thayer Brook and a large 60-acre beaver flowage with exceptional bird & wildlife values. The Preserve supports a short segment of a regional snowmobile and ATV trail and trails connected to Libby Hill Forest. New trails for hiking and biking are planned.

Acquired in March 2022, the Preserve does not yet have fully developed trails, signs, and trail-head parking. Explore as-it-is, or check back for more information after planned summer 2022 work.

Learn more about this preserve via a presentation presented to the Gray Town Council on April 19, 2022.
