Stone Splitting and Shaping Workshop

Join the Taconic Trail Crew to learn about Stone Splitting and Shaping in this Workshop!

Be a trail builder for a day and see what it takes to split and shape stone for use in stone features such as staircases and walls.  Additionally, you'll get to learn about the season's exciting projects!

This workshop will help you learn what it takes to make the trails you love accessible and sustainable.
