Connecticut Forest & Park Association has been the state coordinator for Connecticut Trails Day, part of the American Hiking Society’s National Trails Day, since 1993. Participating in these events is a great way to experience the many trails around the state, including three National Scenic or HIstoric Trails: the New England Trail (NET),

Appalachian Trail (AT), Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route (W3R). Visit CFPA’s website, www.ctwoodlands.org, to check for Connecticut Trails Day updates.

That's an odd request Laura. Why would you wish to walk with a group that talks so much?
