Conveniently located on the Point Road of Crabtree Neck Peninsula about a mile from Route 1, the Pettengill Trail winds through mossy old-growth trees, bog bridges, and deep forest quietude. The 164-acre Pettengill Preserve includes forested and shrub wetlands and wildlife habitat in an area that the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and the US Fish and Wildlife Service have described as containing “high value” plant and animal habitat.
Pettengill is part of CNLT’s mission to pursue large-scale conservation in this area, fulfilling an essential part of its vision: to save large, unbroken tracts of land that protect highly valued wildlife habitat and maintain the rural character of Crabtree Neck.
