Update: Thanks to Kevin Gough and Paula Jones for introducing our friends to this scenic, rustic spot. NBC Connecticut’s coverage of Connecticut Trails Day featured this site. If you were there, watch to see if you’re famous!

On Connecticut Trails Day, join us for an easy, 2.5-mile hike along the scenic Farmington River in Bloomfield and Windsor, perfect for families and new hikers. We’ll visit the remains of glacial Lake Hitchcock and discuss long-term plans for the park. Preregistration is required, beginning May 20. To help maintain social distancing, we’ll be in two groups staggered to start at 9:00 and 9:30. When you register for the event, we’ll contact you with your start time. Leashed dogs permitted. Rain postpones to Sunday, June 6.
