Getting Outdoors
The terrain of American Legion State Forest offers excellent opportunities for hiking. There are two major trails within the state forest-the Henry Buck Trail and the Turkey Vultures Ledges Trail. The latter is recommended for inexperienced hikers because it is easy and relatively short. Walking through the pine forest will take you over rugged surfaces by the river, straight to the waterfalls. Should you venture further up the hill, you might see amazing landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see.
Camping at American Legion State Forest
American Legion State Forest has a small campground located next to the water. The campground consists of two loops, with a couple of cabins available to visitors as well. Campers will find 30 sites here, with some of them overlooking the river. These sites can accommodate RVs that are up to 35 feet long. Other facilities include restrooms, hot showers, a small picnic area, a dump station, and a laundry facility.
Exploring the Area
A former mill town, Torrington, is the cultural and economic center of this part of Connecticut. It is surrounded by gorgeous countryside that is famous for the beautiful vineyards. American Legion State Forest campers could spend an eventful afternoon in this city, touring the major landmarks, parks, and historical buildings. Torrington has a fascinating past, and if you wish to find out more about it, the Torrington History Museum should be included in your tour. The museum is located on Main Street and features several permanent exhibits. These tell the story of the city from prehistory to the present day. The city’s economy was driven by large factories that manufactured various tools, and you may learn all about them in this museum.
