Beautiful reservoir and bridge across it (Old Huckleberry Rd). The approach through Old Kingdom Road, Reservoir Rd and Old Huckleberry on very narrow, windy and hilly roads is beautiful as well.

There are 2 ways to tackle the MTB trails at Crescent. You can do the lower trails, by heading up the hill from the parking lot. There's about 6.5 miles of trails on the lower section that criss-cross, but can be done with little replication. Then there is upper Crescent. You leave the parking via the road and get on the trail next to the goat farm. From there, you take 3 lefts as you climb to the top of Sunset rock. There are another 6-10 miles of trails at the top, which can then be combined with the lower trails to make a mega loop. Plan on spending over 90 minutes doing the upper section, compared to about 60 minutes doing the lower section. The upper section can be very technical in spots. Don't follow the blue trail as it's for hiking only and is not navigable by bike (unless you really want to hike a bike). MTB trails have a red paint or pink tape marker and can be very tough to follow in the fall.

The Saugatuck Reservoir, an 827-acre manmade lake in Fairfield County, offers an angler's paradise just off the I-95 corridor. From Newtown Turnpike, you can catch beautiful views through the woods surrounding the reservoir, often with reflections of the sky in the still water.

This is a tiny but highly scenic little park. The roads that circumnavigate Lake Warmaug are partially shaded and go right up to the water's edge, and the views out across the water are especially beautiful in the autumn. There is also camping, hiking, and kayaking here, as well as a couple small beaches for swimming.

In this area, you'll find a perfect spot for relaxation amidst nature. The area by the lake is specially beautiful and there are many trails for you to explore the park, especially in the southern part of the lake.

This small lake-side park comes equipped with picnic benches and plenty of trees to provide shade on a summers day. A great spot to take a break.

The Stewart B. McKinney National Wildlife Refuge is a 950-acre (384.5 ha) National Wildlife Refuge. It provides a protected habitat for many different types of birds and waterfowl. The wetlands are completely flat, so you get great views of the surrounding area and the point where the Housatonic River enters the Long Island Sound.
