Celebrate Connecticut Trails Day by spending a morning with fellow outdoor enthusiasts on the GLT’s Mary Edwards Mountain Property! This family-friendly nature walk will be led by  GLT Board Member and Middle School Science Teacher Jennifer Plourde. We will hike down a hill on a loop trail and see a beautiful stream where Mary Edwards used to spend her summer days. Some areas may be wet or rocky, so please wear appropriate footwear. Please leave your dogs at home. Parking is on Mountain Road near the intersection with Silkey Road. We will meet at the trailhead at 9 am. To register for this hike, please email Jennifer Plourde.

The Connecticut Trails Day Celebration is part of National Trails Day® (NTD), a nationwide hiking initiative established by the American Hiking Society in 1993. Trails Day encourages the public and outdoor enthusiasts nationwide to seek out their favorite trails while participating in numerous events held in each state. The Connecticut Forests and Parks Association (CFPA) has been coordinating Connecticut’s participation since NTD began.
