With over 800 acres of land open to public use, the Sharon Land Trust hosts some of the best hiking in Litchfield County— if not the best hiking in Connecticut! With picturesque views, lush forests, blooming flowers and wildlife of all types, our trails are worth a special visit. Difficulty levels range from easy to moderate (with a few good uphill hikes included), and some trails are maintained for horseback riding as well. See you out there!
