Portland’s Town Trails Intro

November 8, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Portland’s Town Trails I don’t know how many Portlands there are in America, but everyone is familiar with the big two in Maine and Oregon; two states known for fantastic hiking and backwoods experiences. Our own little Portland also has a lot of hiking and backwoods to experience. A huge swath of the town is … [Read more...]

New London Town Trails Intro

October 18, 2019 by Steve 1 Comment

New London’s Town Trails At a hair over 5.5 square miles, the city of New London is the second smallest of Connecticut’s 169 towns. Everyone goofs on Derby for being the smallest, but New London only has half a square mile on it. It’s kind of like being from Delaware, as I am, and moving to Connecticut only to hear … [Read more...]

Lisbon’s Town Trails Intro

October 16, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Lisbon’s Town Trails There are nice trails in Lisbon, Maine and others in Lisbon, Portugal. As for our own little Lisbon, Connecticut… well, there are trails. And that’s cool, right? I like little trail networks in little eastern Connecticut towns. They are generally flat and featureless, but therein lies … [Read more...]

Brooklyn’s Town Trails

October 14, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Brooklyn’s Town Trails This… could get interesting. You’ll see below a nice list of seven trails in Brooklyn. Three land trusts manage property and maintain trails in town. A town that, on paper, should have this number of trailed properties. However, while putting this page’s list together – as well as … [Read more...]

New Britain’s Town Trails

September 28, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

New Britain’s Town Trails I make no secret of my love for New Britain. I've said it many times on this here website. This isn't the page to explain my feelings, which is probably weird as this is the page that will leave you wondering why. I like to hike. New Britain doesn't really offer anything in the way … [Read more...]

Lebanon’s Town Trails

September 22, 2019 by Steve 1 Comment

Lebanon’s Town Trails As of this writing, the town of Lebanon's website promises to update their trails page. I've scoured elsewhere and I cannot find any trails other than something called Commons Hill which may or may not really exist anymore. So here's a picture of a place nowhere near Lebanon, CT. I'm … [Read more...]

Scotland’s Town Trails

September 17, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Scotland's Town Trails I'm sorry you've somehow found yourself on this page, for there are no Bethlehem Scotland-owned properties with trails as far as I know. If I'm wrong, please contact me or comment below. My Scotland Town Hikes: None CTMQ's Guide to Scotland Various maps of Scotland … [Read more...]

Bridgeport’s Town Trails

September 3, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Bridgeport’s Town Trails Bridgeport is known as Park City. So it stands to reason that the city has a lot of town parks. As it turns out, it does. Although not really enough to warrant the title of Park City, but it’s a nice way to think about what is, unfortunately, one of our more beleaguered urban centers in the … [Read more...]

Bridgewater’s Town Trails

September 1, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Bridgewater’s Town Trails You have no business being here. But here you are. On a dead-end page with nothing of any interest on it. For Bridgewater has no town trails as best as I can tell. Now, please don't get confused. There are several trails in Bridgewater - trails worth hiking even. But I list them … [Read more...]
