CT TRAILS DAY EVENT:

This year, Avalonia’s is hosting three events during the annual Connecticut Trails Day event. 

This event is an adventure at The Herman E. Sheets Family Forest, an 87-acre picturesque preserve that lies adjacent to the Green Fall River which opened last year. It’s a mixed forest with ponds and brooks to be crossed by bridges.

The hike will start out on the yellow trail (south loop). After about 0.75 miles, folks may continue on the south loop to complete an easier 1.4-mile hike, while others may take the red trail (north loop) which will result in a moderate 2.8-mile hike. There will be leaders for both of these options.

Avalonia is hosting this adventure, but please register on the CT TRAILS DAY website. Registration opens May 10th.
