CT Trails Day 2018... so many events to choose from!

Connecticut is proud to host the largest National Trails Day® celebration in the nation.  Although we are a state small in size, we are big on outdoor fun!

We already have 240 events scheduled for June 2 & 3, 2018. You can check them out on our Online Directory. Trails Day events are free and have a volunteer guide. Activities include hikes, family walks, trail runs, paddles, bike rides, historical strolls and so much more.

Special thanks to all of our event leaders, volunteers, sponsors, and partners who made CT Trails Day such a great success - we couldn’t do it without you!

The deadline has passed for new events to be featured in our Trails Day booklet, but until May 15 leaders can still submit an event that will be featured on our popular Online Directory.

We look forward to seeing you on the trails!

Dust off those old Hiking boots and get outside!
CT Trails Day is just a few weeks away and this year it's bigger than ever! With over 240 events in an improved and easy to use online directory of events, you'll be sure to find a new adventure.
