Fantastic and beautiful place to relax and admire nature. Beware of ticks and wear big spray
The waters are “boiling “ once again! The fish hatchery has reopened and the Trout are jumping!!! Such a special place and admission is free..a “short” mile walk from the parking lot to the hatchery and see what is happens Ing in the crystal clear waters of Connetquot. So beautiful!
You can drive to it from front gate OR take 1 of the beautiful trails from parking lot. Tree lined trails bring you on a nature adventure of sight, and sound. You can view the basins of raised fish and the streams for fly fishing too
Beautiful park, very big, nice trails and lakes and rivers to fish in. I am a NYS Park Steward and I am constantly patrolling the trails and helping people with directions or clearing a trail so it may be used. Please help by leaving no trace you were ever in our park, that is to say whatever you come in with, take out of the park with you, leave no garbage or anything you brought into the park, stay on marked trails and enjoy the natural beauty of mother nature.
Cool spot to visit. You can park in the main lot and take a 20-minute hike or you could drive right up to the hatchery. Baby trout, big trout, talking trout. You name it they got it
