     There's whitewater on Farmington River - Collinsville for all you adrenaline kick people. You'll need more than a day to explore everything Grannis Pond has to offer, you can camp at Gentile's Camp Ground. Take a side spree to Cussgutter Brook. Lakes? Sure, Florians Pond is close by. This lake is so wonderful. Near Grannis Pond you stumble on the Quinnipiac Trail which is a good hiking trail, and for you golfers we recommend nearby Pine Valley Golf Course. The high  
   level of rain makes Grannis Pond a rather wet site; the wettest month of the year is regularly August, that's the one that rains the most; the driest of the months is February.
You'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Mount Southington if you're here; since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always go to nearby Compounce Lake. This lake is so wonderful. There's so much to do here at Grannis Pond that you need to camp here for a while,
 
               Black Rock State Park is a wonderful place for that, and if the weather is tremendous, you can go for a hike along the Tunxis Trail. What a site this is for outdoors people. If you need a place to stay Residence Inn Southington is a great choice; get your heart pumping on the good whitewater of Farmington River - Riverton.
