Land Trust Trails

East Lyme Land Trust

August 10, 2020 by Steve 1 Comment

East Lyme Land Trust There is a lot packed in to little East Lyme. And I'm not just talking about ticks either. I'm talking about trails. Lots of trails. And lots of entities that maintain those trails. The East Lyme Land Trust is but one. I kind of like the excitement of hiking trails on property owned by … [Read more...]

GNH: Long Wharf Nature Preserve

July 20, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

Gather 'Round Kids Gather New Haven's Long Wharf Nature Preserve June 2019 For those of you that read all my hiking pages, I'm about to sound like a broken record: I love urban trails. Yes, of course, there really no better way to spend a crisp autumn day in Connecticut than traipsing up and down mountains in … [Read more...]

Milford Land Conservation Trust

July 18, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

Milford Land Conservation Trust Milford Another tough one. The Milford Land Conservation Trust has done a great job securing parcels of land all over town. And when it comes to Milford, a lot of that land is marshland. Unhikeable and mostly unkayakable. So cross them off the list. Then most of their other … [Read more...]

Branford Land Trust Trails

July 9, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

Branford's Town & Land Trust Trails Oh man. There are only a few towns that leave me no choice but to combine different entities' trailed properties into one list. As you've guessed by now, Branford is one. And while this gives my list-OCD fits, this is a very good thing. Very good in that it's nice to see … [Read more...]

Salisbury Association Land Trust

July 1, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

Salisbury Association Land Trust Salisbury I'll admit it. I've created over 100 of these land trust trails pages and this one has me slightly defeated. Perhaps I'm a bit fatigued... nah. It's just that some of these entities don't have the resources to create useful websites. So I have to go on a time-consuming … [Read more...]

Tanager Hill

June 30, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

Blazes Appropriately Scarlet Simsbury Land Trust's Tanager Hill Property, Simsbury April 2020 Imagine Connecticut without the Metacomet Ridge that rises right up like a reptilian spine through the middle of the state. No Sleeping Giant, no Castle Craig, no Heublein Tower... no Talcott Mountain and no Penwood State … [Read more...]

BLT: Edith Toomey Clark Property

June 23, 2020 by Steve 1 Comment

EDITH! Edith Toomey Clark Property, Bolton April 2020 I would confidently state that very few people hike this property without hiking the Rose Trail at the historic Bolton Heritage Farm. There is another way to access the trails here, but that would mean walking along the Hop River State Park Trail, which, now … [Read more...]

North Woods Land Conservancy

June 23, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

North Woods Land Conservancy Barkhamsted & Hartland In 2024, The Hartland Land Trust merged with the Barkhamsted Land Trust to form North Woods Land Conservancy. At the time, there are no trailed properties in Barkhamsted. Not that counties mean anything in Connecticut, but pick someone up off the street in … [Read more...]

East Haddam Land Trust Intro

June 19, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

East Haddam Land Trust East Haddam East Haddam has way more trails than you'd probably think. Not that it's not a lovely town with lovely woods - for it is. It's just that it's... East Haddam. The Goodspeed, Gillette Castle, Devil's Hopyard, the swing bridge... but trails? Yes, and lots of them. Below are … [Read more...]
