HIKING: Selden Neck State Park

← CT GUILFORD HARBOR OLD WHITFIELD ST NEAR GUILFORDCT Triple Blaze →

Description

A marked trail begins near the Quarry Knob camp site and leads to the quarry area in the southeast part of the island. The trail encounters the old causeway, built to transfer the granite stones from the quarry face to the shoreline for shipment. Another trail extends northwest to the ruins of old farm buildings and a well. Lookouts from the trail offer wonderful views of the lower Connecticut River. From these the viewer will quickly understand why the Nature Conservancy designated the lower Connecticut River as one of "America's Last Great Places".

Directions

The park is accessible only from water.
