The almost 1,500+ acres of Sleeping Giant SP provide a wide range of hiking opportunities. In fact, that might be overwhelming! Try the Nature Trail that begins at the park entrance parking lot. This area is rich with views and history.

REMEMBER: Follow basic hiking guidelines: Wear good shoes, bring water and simple first aid kit, plus a copy/phone photo of trail map. Check the weather ahead of time, if you go alone, let others know where/when you’re going. All participation is at your own risk. Find a nearby restaurant or ice cream shop to reward yourself after your hike!
HIKING HINTS is a program of the MIDDLETOWN CT REC office. Follow them on Facebook.
