Being such a long path, the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail passes through a bunch of different parks, neighborhoods, and different ecosystems. This section between the Cran Preserve and Sleeping Giant State Park is one of the quieter stretches of trail with lots of tree cover and a stream next to the trail the entire time.

Viewpoint in the south end of West Rock Ridge State Park. It gives an excellent view of New Haven and the Long Island Sound. The road to get up to the overlook is paved and there is parking nearby.

The Beach Street Trail is a beautiful paved trail that runs along the shore of the Long Island sound. It is traffic free, so it is a great way to get a wonderful view of the water at your own pace.

The Farmington Canal Heritage Trail is a 80-mile paved trail that follows the path of the historic Farmington Canal. The trail is flat, so is an easy ride with many access points. The trail offers great views of the Connecticut River and the surrounding countryside.

Although there are numerous parking areas to access Sleeping Giant State Park, this is the main entrance, with a sizable picnic area and plenty of parking.

These cliffs, also known as the Sleeping Giant's head and chin, are one of the more obvious rock climbing areas in Sleeping Giant State Park. Take care not to stray onto technical terrain unless you're prepared for it, and be ready for beautiful views even if you never leave the hiking trail!

This stately stone structure isn't a castle — it's a lookout tower, and probably one of the most popular ones in all of Connecticut. You can't beat the views from up here, but to get inside you climb up some ramps instead of stairs. Those ramps can be treacherous in icy conditions.

Fussy Coffee at Science Park on the trail in New Haven, a great trail stop!
