Glastonbury’s Town Trails

April 21, 2014 by Steve Leave a Comment

Glastonbury’s Town Trails

My post-college, pre-Hoang girlfriend was from Glastonbury. I recall checking out Cotton Hollow with her once and thinking, whoa, this is pretty cool. Right here in Glastonbury. I would never have thought such a thing existed here. As she stumbled down the ravine in her improper footwear, she never would have thought I would have cared.

But now I do.

Shoddy Mill Preserve

Glastonbury is sort of like another version of my town of West Hartford. However, Glastonbury crushes West Hartford in one department: hiking. And I plan to prove that point over time on this very page.

My Glastonbury Town Hikes:

Addison Bog
Arbor Acres
Blackledge Falls
Buckingham Park
Buckingham Reservoir/Roaring Brook
Butler Field
Case Mountain Recreational Area Intro and South Trails
Cotton Hollow
Earle Park/Cider Mill/Red Hill
Ferry Landing
Great Pond Preserve
Grayledge Farm
Keeney Cove/Richard Strong Open Space
Longo Farm Open Space
Matson Hill Open Space
Riverfront Park
Shoddy Mill Preserve
Williams Park
