There are fantastic road trips in Connecticut: we have abandoned places to visit, beautiful places in the spring, fall foliage hunts, and more. A trip we love any time of the year is a quick trip around the state that will show you some of our top attractions. The trip is pretty short in terms of driving time, but you’ll be able to see some of the best spots in the state no matter what time of year!

The whole trip takes about 3.5 hours of driving time. You can view the fully customizable route on Google Maps. We intentionally left the trip a bit open-ended with a few cities instead of specific destinations, that way you can tailor the plan to your individual needs.
1. Kent Falls State Park: 462 Kent Cornwall Rd, Kent, CT 06757

Honestly, Kent Falls State Park belongs on any Connecticut road trip! This beautiful spot is one of the best places to hike in the Nutmeg State. Waterfalls, trails, even a covered bridge: this beautiful park has it all.

2. Hartford, Connecticut
Connecticut’s capital has a bad reputation as a boring, business-centric place that doesn’t have much to offer tourists. In fact, there are many destinations worth visiting. The Elizabeth Park Conservancy is a beautiful place. Hartford is also home to Connecticut’s first food hall, making it a great option when you want to stop for lunch.
3. Devil’s Hopyard State Park: 366 Hopyard Rd, East Haddam, CT 06423

4. Mystic, CT

Mystique, Stonington, CT, USA

5. New Haven, Connecticut
New Haven is another Connecticut all-inclusive town that suits a variety of visitors. Restaurants? To verify. Beautiful hikes? Yeah. Great museums? You bet.
