Take a hike at Osbornedale State Park in Derby on CT Trails Day


DERBY - Raise your heart rate and your spirits with a fitness hike on the Red & Yellow Loop Trails at Osbornedale State Park from 9-10:30 a.m. June 4.


Get your body pumping with this fast-paced, 20-minutes-a-mile hike along flat to moderately steep terrain.  

The trail loop is less than two-and-half-miles long and has a 354-foot elevation gain and limited accessibility.  

The terrain varies from flat and muddy to moderately steep and rocky.  

The meeting place is at the parking lot of the Kellogg Environmental Center and Osborne Homestead Museum, 500 Hawthorne Ave.
