Summary

Join me for this early spring 4-5 mile hike along a variety of woodlands trails traversing the 285 acres of town-owned property in the southwestern section of Manchester CT. For a small area, the variety of terrain is amazing and beautiful, with a great viewpoint of the CT river valley at the lunch stop. Please bring water, snacks and lunch for our stop on the 744' towering summit of Lookout Mountain!
