Granby, Connecticut has some of the most beautiful walking trails in New England.

Think romantic strolls in the woods, amber coloured leaves and the only noise you hear is the wind brushing past the trees.

Doesn’t this sound like paradise?

Okay, if you’re after a different kind of paradise in Granby, check out my post about the best restaurants and food in Granby.

But if this sounds like heaven to you, READ ON!!

So here we go.. The best walks in Granby are:

Enders State Forest

Consisting of a series of waterfalls, Enders State Forest is best enjoyed after rain.

When visiting in fall, the colours of the leaves were an array of yellows, oranges and reds. The trail is a 0.8-mile loop (or 1.2 KM) and makes for a romantic afternoon walk.

When visiting, we only saw one other person walking during our time there. If you’re after a peaceful walk during your stay in Granby, this is the place for you!

All paths are marked in the refuge, and there is a beautiful look out point for those who enjoy summit views.
