Wilgus State Park was originally constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps but was developed and expanded again from 1960 til present. Since it is located on the Connecticut River it is a very popular destination for canoeing and hiking and there are rentals available for those activities. <br />
There are no hiking trails in the state park, but this park provides access to the Pinnacle Trail hike, which provides a scenic vista of the Connecticut River Valley.
From I-91 (Exit #8): Go 1-1/2 mi. S on U.S. 5.
