SCRTA PRESENTS THE GAP TRAIL PASSPORT PROJECT

Join the Somerset County Recreation and Trails Association (SCRTA) for an exciting all-ages adventure on the GAP trail! Embark on a ride, run, or walk to 22 distinctive destinations, each offering a unique experience. At every stop, you’ll discover a special image on posts or benches. Rub these images onto the corresponding pages in your passport booklet as a keepsake of your journey.

This incredible project was created by the talented students at Rockwood School and proudly sponsored by Somerset Trust. Their dedication and creativity have brought this adventure to life, encouraging community engagement and a love for the great outdoors.

Once you’ve collected all 22 rubbings, bring your completed passport booklet to one of our designated sites to receive your completion prize. This adventure not only promotes outdoor activity and exploration but also allows participants to engage with the scenic beauty of the GAP trail.

Don’t miss out on this thrilling challenge—grab your passport booklet today and start your adventure! Prizes available while supplies last.
