Tips

January 12, 2024

Running

Just off the side of the path, there is a pretty cool head-on view of Sleeping Giant. If you like trails and hills, there is lots of great running just across the street at Sleeping Giant State Park.

Cycling

The obvious, tree-covered hill to your northeast, on the far side of the Mill River, is Sleeping Giant, which looks like the head of the giant when viewed from the right angle. You can also bike north or south from here on the Farmington Heritage Canal, which is part of the East Coast Greenway.
