Time to play a little catch up with the blog. Back in November 2012 we went for a hike at Lovers Leap State Park in New Milford, CT. It is not a large park with 140 acres, but the trails on either side of the Housatonic River take about an hour and a half to two hours. Our first visit to the park, we crossed over the beautiful, red Falls Bridge to hike the Lovers Leap Trail. There is a fantastic view from the lookout point of the trail. You can stand on the rock and gaze out over the Housatonic River. This trail connects to the Tea House Trail, the Castle Loop, and the Hurd Estate Trails. On these trails you will find the remains of structures that once marked the land. There is a great deal of history that you can learn about this area. Indians once lived in this very location hundreds of years ago. This hike was relatively easy. A nice way to enjoy the outdoors if you are short on time.
