1. Bear Mountain - Mount Riga State Park Trail, Salisbury
A popular hiking destination, trails.com offers a beautiful description
of the challenging 6-mile Mount Riga trail: “A grand stone pyramid crowns
its summit, offering unrestricted views which include broad valleys,
shimmering lakes, and rugged mountains in three different states. In
addition to the vistas this walk takes you on a long loop through ancient
forests where animals such as fisher, deer, and coyote roam. There are ponds
and bogs, songbirds and wildflowers, and much, much more.”
2. Ragged Mountain Preserve Trail, Berlin
Ragged Mountain attracts experienced hikers and rock-climbers from
throughout the region with its scenic views of the Quinnipiac River,
vertical cliffs and unique flora. Several trails for hikers of all levels
traverse the mountain, which is also a part of the 51-mile Metacomet Trail
and the New England National Scenic Trail.
3. The Appalachian Trail: Falls Village to Salisbury, Falls Village
This 9.9-mile section of the Appalachian Trail route travels through the
northwestern corner of Connecticut with particularly scenic views of the
Housatonic River Valley to the east and the Taconic Range to the west.
Hiking is mostly moderate, with steep, fairly challenging sections that are
short in duration, and a section that is wheelchair accessible. Views are
often pastoral.
4. The Devil's Den Concourse, Georgetown
This eight-mile hike through an extensive 1,700 acre environmental
sanctuary is perfect for any level hiker. Take a leisurely stroll past ponds
, streams, gorges and ravines, taking in the natural formations and varied
wildlife. Or challenge yourself to ascend the steeper ridges – the view of
the Saugatuck Reservoir and nineteenth-century lumber mill below are worth
it.
5. The Hanging Hills, Meriden
Trek more of the Metacomet Trail at the Hanging Hills, where the park
road leads to Castle Craig Tower at an elevation 976 feet, and outstanding
views from the Quinnipiac River Valley to Long Island Sound. Adjacent to the
mountain range is Meriden’s Hubbard Park, where visitors enjoy a large
flower garden, picnic areas and outdoor concerts and festivals. While on the
mountain, keep your eyes peeled for the Black Dog of Hanging Hills, a
rumored canine spirit said to make its home on the ridge.
6. Appalachian National Scenic Trail, Connecticut to Massachusetts
The truly adventurous may endeavor to hike the entire Connecticut/
Massachusetts section of the Appalachian Trail. The 138-mile route passes
through forest, streams, fields and mountains and reaches from the northwest
corner of Connecticut along the western edge of Massachusetts.
7. Appalachian Trail: Kent to St. Johns Ledges, Kent
This exciting five-mile trek is better suited for the more experienced
hiker, but well worth the challenge. With a highest elevation of 1,100 feet,
the scenic trail ends with a thrilling yet manageable descent.
8. Devil’s Den Preserve, Weston
One of the largest preserves in the Tri-State Area, the 1,746 acres of
the Devils’ Den Preserve are home to more than 500 types of trees and
wildflowers and 140 species of birds. With 20 miles of trails ranging from
daring to serene, the preserve is a favorite destination for hikers, walkers
, and wildlife enthusiasts.
9. Appalachian Trail: Housatonic River Walk, South Kent
The 4.8-mile Housatonic River Walk is a unique section of the
Appalachian Trail – it is one of few long flat parts of the entire trail.
The easy, relaxing walk on an old farming road provides ample opportunity to
enjoy the natural beauty and varied wildlife along the river.
10. The Indian Council Caves Trail, Barkhamsted
A unique, 4.2-mile section of the Tunxis Trail, the Indian Council Cave
Trail is an enchanting experience which winds past hidden caves, abandoned
homesteads, ridgetop views and acres of ferns and forests.
