Lovely Arboretum and Gardens. Free to enter. Located right off of Merritt Parkway (Route 15). Lots of food options nearby along High Ridge Road. There is a large parking lot close to the main area nearby the visitor's/welcome center. There is also a smaller space which accommodates about 5-6 vehicles as soon as you enter...this eaves you closer to the pond trail. Lots of walking paths on the well-maintained grounds. There are garden areas throughout .... be sure to take a photo of the map and/or follow the signs to explore each area. Bring comfortable and hike-ready footwear...especially if you plan on walking on some of the trails. The few staff members I encountered were very friendly and helpful.

Awesome place. None of the trails are more that a half a mile. All trails are google maps walking directions usable. As in I asked google how to get from one point to another and it gave me trail options and turn by turn directions through out the park. Girl Scouts have contributed several board walkways ( over otherwise swampy parts so you can enjoy nature without getting dirty) to the park. Cell service is consistent and good throughout the park. Btw did I I mention the amazing geocaching that’s available here. Included is the OLDEST geocache in Connecticut.( see photo) Gather loved ones and take a break from the your daily rut and breathe in the fresh air.

This place is so pretty. My family loves it! There are several short hiking trails, and a beautiful lake with a waterfall, and several gardens. There are so many hidden goodies here. My nieces and nephew favorite part was playing with the word rocks shown in the pictures. They were pretty creative., lol. It’s kid friendly, a safe place and very relaxing. I highly recommend this place! We love it.

An amazing natural getaway with a wide variety of trees, gardens, and trails. With no entry fee, this is the best place to go for peaceful walks. These trails are dog-friendly and all of the people I interacted with here are welcoming such as the gardeners who frequent the space as well as the staff who manage it and organize events. Highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area!
