Amwell Valley Trail Association
About Us & Membership Form

Amwell Valley Trail Association (A.V.T.A.) was organized in 1985 by a group of concerned
residents desirous of preserving our rural atmosphere and enjoying hiking, horseback riding,
and cross country skiing.
The A.V.T.A. is a self-policing not-for-profit organization.
Membership is required. membership form
The A.V.T.A. has established Codes of Conduct to which its members must adhere.
The basic premise of these rules is that the rights of the property owners who allow us to use
their land must be respected. We have established and maintained many miles of beautiful
trails. We have found the majority of property owners we have contacted for permission to
hike, horseback ride and cross-country ski look upon our Association and its aims favorably.
As a responsible organization, we are covered by a substantial General Liability policy for
property damage and bodily injury caused by members on the land where we have
permission to horseback ride, hike and ski.
Members dues are used to pay for insurance, tractor maintenance, trail signs, public
relations, supplies, postage, two annual membership parties, and legal fees.
The A.V.T.A. has an annual Hunter Pace with all proceeds used to benefit our
Scholarship Fund and donations to other not-for-profit organizations.
