Here Comes the Sun! Celebrate CT Trails Day with the GLT

June 4, 2023 @ 4:30 am - 6:15 am

IMPORTANT – THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL SUNDAY, JUNE 4, at 4:30AM DUE TO FORECAST FOR RAIN

Join the Granby Land Trust for a sunrise hike on Saturday, June 4 — Connecticut Trails Day. See the sun rise from the Scarlet Tanager Lookout on the GLT’s Schlicht Family Preserve. We will depart from the GLT Katan-Ensor Preserve parking lot at the end of Strong Road at 4:30 am SHARP and proceed across the Katan-Ensor Preserve to the Schlicht Family Preserve, where there is a wonderful view to the east. After watching the sun rise, we will take a short walk by the Messenger Family Homestead, which dates to the 1750s, and then on to the pristine Mountain Brook falls located on the GLT’s Garmany Preserve. Bring a headlamp so you can navigate in the dark! The total hike will be about 2 miles long and includes a somewhat steep climb to the lookout. No dogs, please. RSVP to Rick Orluk at rickorluk@gmail.com (so we can communicate if weather causes us to postpone). The Katan-Ensor Preserve trailhead and parking lot is located at the very end of Strong Road in West Granby.
