West Rock Park is a popular ride among the locals because it is so convenient to the city of New Haven. Trails are marked with colors. Yellow trail is a climb only worth of the Hammer Gods. Red Trail is nice and flat. White trail goes around Lake Wintergreen. Blue trail, another particular tough climb leads to one of the best views, looking directly at down town New Haven
Wilbur Cross Parkway, Exit 60, head south on Dixwell Avenue to first traffic light past the parkway and turn right on to Benham Street.<br />Follow Benham to the end and turn left onto Main Street. First right/drive way on right will be entrance to the park.
