New Haven's Perfect Day Trip Destination with a Fairytale Castle
📍 Hubbard Park [Insert Address Here], Connecticut Just a 30-minute scenic drive from New Haven lies this magical escape - where medieval castle ruins meet breathtaking New England landscapes. Perfect for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike! 🏰 Our Castle Adventure: 🚶 Hiking Up We chose the picturesque trail up (though you can drive). The moderately challenging climb rewards you with: Stunning lake views through the trees That satisfying burn during the steep final ascent Emerging at the castle in under an hour 🌄 Castle Highlights 360-degree panoramic views from the stone tower Photo ops at every turn (bring your camera!) Peaceful moments watching hawks circle below 🌧️ Pro Tip: New England weather is unpredictable! We learned the hard way when a sudden downpour had us sheltering under trees. Pack that rain jacket! ✨ Why We Loved It: More varied terrain than East Rock That fairytale castle surprise at the summit Great for all skill levels (multiple trail options) 💰 Cost: Free!
