Peoples State Forest | Beautiful Unknown Hike in Connecticut
Richard and I have been trying our best to stay positive during this crazy time. It's easy to get bogged down by the constant negative news and being trapped in a home without work doesn't make it any better. Luckily for us, nature has always been a positive, even meditative, place for us. It's free, which is great since we lost our income for the time being, and usually, there are not many people there.
We sought out to find hikes that are accessible for many and this hike was one of them. Although we believe that social distancing is key to tackling this virus, it is also healthy to get outdoors and breathe in the fresh air.
Keep in mind that if local organizations have asked you to stay off the trails, obey their wishes. Also if you find that there are way more cars in the parking lot than usual, maybe find another trail. Lots of people are having the same great idea to get into nature so use common sense and keep your distance from others.
All that being said, People's State Forest was an amazing mid-afternoon hike. There were spectacular views of the valley and the Farmington River. It was early spring when we hiked this, so just imagine how incredible the New England foliage would be in Autumn.
If you are in Western Massachusetts or Connecticut, we highly suggest checking out this not well-known trail system.
