You can't get rid of it unless someone takes it off your hands: the law does not allow you to simply walk away from land title. Even if you give it away for free (e.g. is there a neighbor who'd want it to expand their lot or ensure that he/she can keep the land undeveloped?), you need someone to voluntarily accept a deed to the land.
