Hein Trails
The Hein Trails are the result of a cooperative land purchase involving the Bethany Land Trust, the Regional Water Authority (RWA), the Bethany Conservation Commission and the Hein family. Norvin and Jeanne Hein were interested in protecting their land while generating some income from it, so this innovative partnership enabled them to donate a portion (6.7 acres) of their land for hiking trails while selling the majority of it to the Regional Water Authority to protect the public watershed.
