Northeast Penjajawoc Preserve

Bangor Land Trust purchased this 80.5 acre property in 2006-2007 with support from the Land for Maine’s Future Program and North American Wetlands Conservation Act Funds.  It contains 18.4 acres of wetlands, including three of state significance: the northeast tip of Penjajawoc Marsh, a vernal pool, and a tributary marsh. BLT did extensive trail remediation to protect the wetlands and make the trails more pleasant for people to use.  These trails connect to the old Veazie railroad bed, which you can then follow northward to Walden-Parke Preserve or the Bangor City Forest. A trail guide for this preserve is available on our website and at the BLT office.

Directions: From Stillwater Avenue near the Bangor Mall, drive north about a mile on the Kittredge Road to the end of the pavement.  You will see a BLT kiosk on the left. A printed guide is available from Bangor Land Trust.
