Barkhamsted’s Town Trails

November 24, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Barkhamsted’s Town Trails

Here’s the thing about Barkhamsted: It’s a wooded and rural town where almost all the land is owned by the state or the MDC. There are four state forests here, plus the massive Barkhamsted Reservoir and Lake McDonough.

And there are plenty of great hiking opportunities in town, but nothing in the way of truly town owned trailed properties. In fact, of those listed below, the first one is on MDC land and the Scout camp is private.
