Trail networks in the northern Taconic region are sometimes referred to as the "North Taconic Trails."
In the late 1990s, the Taconic Crest Trail and Taconic Skyline Trail were re-designated, lengthening the former by and shortening the latter by. This redesignation also resulted in the Taconic Crest Trail marked as non-motorized and the Taconic Skyline trail as motorized/ multi-use.
The Taconic Trails are supported by Massachusetts' Commonwealth Connections greenway initiative, as well as the efforts of various conservation and recreation non-profit organizations in the four-state Taconic region.
