Hike Bigelow Hollow State Park, Union CT

Hiking at Bigelow Hollow State Park in Union. The plan is a 7 mile loop that take us around the pond. We end up in and out of CT and MA at the northern edge. This is a moderate hike due to distance. There are ups and downs and a variety of terrain. We will be hiking on the Breakneck Loop.

Please have a backpack to carry layers of clothing, water, snacks. Appropriate warm clothing needed. We will stop for snack breaks and to enjoy views. I have seen bald eagles every time I have hiked there.

Please, no sneakers or jeans. Dogs are welcome but must be on a leash and not allowed to run through the group. No kids. Please remember the posted time is what time the hike starts. Arrive early enough to be ready to start then.

Items you must consider for every event:

• If you have an event after a hike, please do not sign up for the hike.
• End times are only an estimate.
• The group will not adjust speed or trail route to accommodate your schedule.
• If you cannot attend an event, please cancel 48 hours before. Late cancellations are rude and take away the option for others to join the event.
• Be a good hiking human
