Groton Open Space Association Trails
Groton Open Space Association Trails Groton & Ledyard GOSA seems to operate in that netherworld between land trusts and town trails. There are many of these organizations in the state and they can get confusing. I can't pretend that I have it all figured out, but I try. All I really care about is that they maintain … [Read more...]

Tidal Marsh Trail (Closed)
Target This Hike Tidal Marsh Trail, North Haven April 2019 Trail was closed due to "alarming levels of PCB contamination found on the land" in April 2024.

North Haven’s Town Trails
North Haven's Town Trails Which Haven is the most forgotten Haven? Obviously not New Haven. When it comes to the three directional Havens, I'm going to suggest that North Haven is the least known.

New Canaan’s Town Trails
New Canaan's Town Trails New Canaan is one of the wealthiest towns in the country. Depending on which measure one uses, it's always going to land in the top 0.01% or so of wealthy towns. And that explains why one of the more popular town-owned spots to walk takes you past this summer home: That was owned by … [Read more...]
Canterbury’s Town Trails
Canterbury's Town Trails I have a few Canterbury tales, but none yet involve hiking in the rural town. And when all is said and done, I'm not sure how many tales I'll ultimately have. For there is scant hiking here, and what is here... probably isn't all that exciting. But that's why I do what I do. What … [Read more...]
