A wonderful place for a family adventure. Lots of interesting rock formations and water features. Great for exploring!! Some areas more difficult to manoeuvre so sturdy footwear and walking sticks recommended.

Once you find this spot there is a parking lot that you can park it has different trails that you can enter and start walking it is great scenery. There is also a pool to the left side of the parking lot it is definitely an amazing spot to take your dog and your family if they enjoy the outdoors..

Great for walking and hiking. This time we went there in winter. It was icy, but I made some beautiful photos.

Such a beautiful place to hike! To be hiking aside this roaring brook was so peaceful. The scenery is stunning from the variations of stones along the way to hearing the brook flow along the way. It does get steep along the way but the views are just stunning!

Questions & Answers

Why is this preserve being advised as for “ town residents only “? Talk hall and PnR said this is open to all. Is there a guard station with someone checking driving licenses??

Went last year and was in the water fine until and officer asked to see a Glastonbury id, which I clearly didn’t have and asked us to leave because it is for residents only. Easy to get into though no guard in the lot or anything.

Weekdays are less crowded but not everyone can make it on those days. I would say for weekends, go earlier if you can. 9-10 is when I would go

If you park at the parking lot by the public pool theres a trail you can take that goes down the stream a little ways theres a great spot there but really anywhere along the river.

Off of Hopewell Road there is a parking lot with a sign. Also, off Main Street behind Figs restaurant but Hopewell Road brings you right into the best part.
