Glide down the rapids of Connecticut River in a kayak, and after a long day outdoors Hampton Inn Springfield South Enfield is a great site to spend a night or two. There's great hiking along the Metacomet Trail; a pleasant nearby hotel is Enfield Red Roof Inn. Freshwater Pond regularly gets lots of precipitation; May is the month that gets the most rain, and January meanwhile is the driest month. This lake is so wonderful.

Metacomet Trail
 | 17 miles away I finally located the trail entrance about 20 feet past a dirt road gate on the right that I had been using to get to the ridge line. Thanks for the help!...Gene, The trailhead at 315 and 189 is actually on Mountain Road which comes off the Rd right at the juncture. The telphone poles are blazed and the trail breaks into the woods about halfway up on the right side of the road. That is a nice section of trail although we hiked it in the rain. Happy Trails....I am having difficulty locating the trail head in East Granby at rtes. 315 and 189 that leads to south toward Penwood State Park. The trail maps say that the trail head is on Mountain Road, but there are no blue/yellow blazed trail markers on either of the two entry points into the woods. The only indication of the trail is the sign post at the bottom of the road in the three way intersection. Thanks.... |
