Amazing scenery! Go off on the blue/orange trail and the views are to die for. Very rocky in January and muddy. There is somewhere that you have to walk over two pieces of tree to walk over a river. Not too high off the ground.
Hiked this trail as part of the 1st Day hiking event sponsored by CT Forest & Park Association. At least 150 people on this hike, so it was fairly slow going. The only view of water was from the blue/orange spur, and even then only because there were no leaves on the trees. The recording shows a trip across the Housatonic River; this did not happen. This is the second time All Trails has corrupted a recording for me, which also throws of the elevation gain distance stats.

Wasn’t a particularly exciting hike, there was a view but it was a bit blocked by trees. Was peaceful, tho. If you want more of a work out, I’d suggest going clockwise on the trail. It is more of a leisurely walk if you go counterclockwise.

This is one of my favorites. A little challenging but the path is very clear. Not much traffic. Dog friendly. Recently hiked in the rain but the tree coverage prevented us from getting wet. Lots of shade on sunny days. Can be buggy so pack your bug spray. In the summer, the trees don’t allow for a great view of the water but the fall brings pretty views.
Really nice hike, It was very cool under the trees. There map shows two lookout points with the trail that branches off to the west, though the eastern trail is blocked by a bunch of downed trees. Looks like that would have been a great view, but the other one is still nice.
First time here. What a great place.

Such a gorgeous hike - you want a lakefront beach? Rushing Brook? Spectacular views? all here. Hit a brewpub ápres, Bad Sons is a good time.
What a fun little hike. First time here but I liked it and would come back for camping. It was pretty icy in som steeper down hill areas but I managed it while holding two large dogs. My all trails app kept giving me errors about the GPS. So my route isn't correct. I just followed the blue blazed aka Miller trail the whole time, about 2.5 miles.
Hiked with my 6 year old daughter. We found a bunch of heart shaped rocks & leaves. So we named it heart trail. Nice walk. Only downside was the lady with her dog off leash that ran at us and kept barking. According to the lady "it's a puppy." Too bad puppies can't read -dogs should be on a leash Other than that. Nice trail
