Hikes & Road Trips in CT & New England

Detailed trail guides, dog-friendly itineraries, and scenic road trips curated for the outdoor enthusiast.

👋 Hi! I’m Kristen!

I teach math at a high school but love to explore every chance I get! This often involves working in sunrise and sunset hikes during the week and road trips and long hikes on the weekend.

I haven’t always hiked this much even though I wanted to! I grew up in CT and in high school, I always was looking for someone to come up Sleeping Giant (our popular trail in town) with me.
