Trails Day 2023

Connecticut Trails Day Logo

Trails Day is back again for 2023 and Milford will be celebrating by hosting a guided nature walk through Solomon Woods on June 3rd!

The annual Trails Day event highlights beautiful areas of nature around our state. Hundreds of guided tours take you into the best places Connecticut has to offer.

This family friendly nature hike will bring you into the magnificent 100-acre Solomon Woods. A guided hike along the blue trail will explore a variety of wildlife and inspect evidence of the glaciers that once covered Milford roughly 17,000 years ago. We will pass vital vernal pools the resident amphibians use to breed each spring. Abandoned rock walls and wells highlight the previous uses of the property. There are two new bridges along the trail but small stream crossings still require rock hopping. Please wear sturdy shoes or sneakers. Leashed dogs are welcome to attend.

Preregistration is not required but is encouraged to receive event updates and information if there is inclement weather. Registration will open May 10th and is available on the Trailsday.org website

Please come prepared with water, bug repellent, and dressed for the outdoors. If there are any questions, please email jgrant@milfordct.gov or call 203-878-7812.
