Hiking (and Biking) with a View
Sometimes the hike is its own reward. Other times, there’s nothing like reaching the summit of a great hike and being greeted with an amazing vista. As activities will look a little different right now, outdoor recreation is a great way to safely enjoy the season. Here are some spots where you’ll find spectacular high points you can reach easily by hiking (or in some cases, mountain biking) Connecticut’s trails.
