Walking, Hiking and Biking Trails

Picture
Burr Pond State Park

The pond at Burr Pond State Park, Torrington CT is very pretty with an easy walking trail around it. The trail is less than 3 miles. The scenery is beautiful in Spring-Summer and the Fall foliage is just wonderful.


Picture
Buttrick Trail
The Buttrick Trail uses the old Buttrick Road right of way. It connects the Sue Grossman Still River Greenway to the Blue Trail System between Burr Pond State Park and Sunnybrook State Park. Entrance: Buttrick Road - Winsted Road, Torrington, CT


Picture
John Muir Trail
Park at SunnyBrook Park off Newfield Rd. in Torrington and crossed the road and you will find the trail head just on the other side of a small bridge.  The hike is about 4 miles and is blazed with blue paint. 


Picture
Sue Grossman Greenway
The Sue Grossman Still River Greenway runs for nearly 3 miles through a wooded corridor between Lanson Drive and Harris Drive in Torrington. The paved trail occupies the old right-of-way for the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad's Naugatuck division. 
​

Sue Grossman Extension
The Sue Grossman Extension is the extension of the current Sue Grossman Still River Greenway. It connects from Harris Drive south to Kennedy Drive, and only requires three right-of-ways, and contains one big road crossing. The Sue Grossman Extension could eventually connect to Alvord Park. 


Picture
