What are the best outdoor activities in Connecticut?

I’ll be visiting family in Connecticut for a few weeks this summer, and I’m trying to plan some cool things for us to do while I’m there. What are the best outdoor activities in Connecticut?

Between its beautiful landscapes and scenic waterways,
Connecticut
has a lot to offer when it comes to outdoor activities. Whether you’re planning a day trip or a
road trip
, here’s some of our favorite things to do in the Centennial State:
  • Visit the historic village of Mystic and walk along the scenic shoreline.
  • Grab a good pair of boots and hike the moderately-difficult Mattabesett Blue Trail.
  • Climb the short but steep path to the overlook at Kent Falls State Park for a breathtaking view of the 250-foot waterfall.
  • Head to Ocean Beach Park to soak up the sun or take a dip in the Long Island Sound.
  • Rent a canoe or kayak and paddle the Salmon River.
No matter which destination you choose, don’t let car trouble interrupt your summer plans. Before you set off, consider updating your
