The Farmington River Bike Trail - Canton, Collinsville, Burlington, Unionville


If you happen to be riding at all in northwestern Connecticut, I urge you to try the Farmington River Bike Trail, which runs through several towns in Hartford County. The trail is not terribly hilly, and is quite scenic.


Also, much has been done to improve this trail over the years. When I first rode this trail probably 15 years ago, it was very basic - a few paved spots, some dirt spots, a couple wooden benches along the way. Today, the trail is mostly paved, has lots of places to sit or to picnic, and lots of on-trail parking areas. This trail is a real gem here in western Connecticut.
