Wallingford’s Town Trails
Wallingford, aka, Walli-World. I have some friends there, and I always enjoy the tap list at the Westbrook Lobster in town. But it was hiking the Mattabesett Trail over in eastern Wallingford that really showed me that this town has a lot more to offer than most people think.

Then I started doing some of the town’s land trust trails and was a bit disappointed. However, as I drove around the town looking for these little half-mile trails through people’s backyards, I kept passing parks and things.
And if you know me, you know I went home and Googled those parks to see what they had to offer. Many of them had trails!
And here we are.
