Quinebaug Woods’ moderate/short 1.1 mile loop trail goes along the Quinebaug River. It then heads up over a steep hillside with rocky outcrops. Mixed open canopy along the top of the “hogback” ridge, hemlocks dominate below, forming dense stands. View remains from a cabin built in 1932. Look over Blake Hill to the east and Hamilton Reservoir to the south. Year-round habitat varies throughout supporting spotted salamanders, beavers, kingfishers, herons, seasonal blooms & more. No fee.
