Prospect Mountain Preserve - A Gem Worth Exploring!

5/4/2020

0 Comments

 
This 340-acre preserve, located west of Litchfield Center, includes a spectacular viewpoint near its 1350-foot summit, as well as a large pond to the west. The area was subject to significant nickel mining explorations in the 1800’s. Most of the Prospect Mountain Preserve was acquired in 1983, largely through the efforts of Dallett Hoopes, a founder of the Litchfield Land Trust. The Blue Trail is named for him. The White Trail is named in recognition of Graham Thompson, also an early leader of LLT. The entire Prospect Mountain trail system is part of Connecticut Forest and Park Association’s (CFPA) statewide system of trails, and is jointly administered by CFPA and LLT.  Please go to the trail map on our website for information on the four trails within the preserve.
