A great, free, self guided walk with a path that brings you across the train tracks to a gorgeous view of the CT river. You could spend twenty mins here or several hours. My two kiddos are 13 and 15 and we're into it.
We expected more than what was there. We really didn't know where we were going. There's a nice spot over the railroad tracks to walk out onto the rocks on the river But it's all posted private property!
Very cool to see old dinosaur tracks but was hoping they would be bigger. Also needs something to preserve the integrity of the tracks.
That being said it was a nice short walk and the river is very nice.
Very interesting! The footprints are just a very short path away from the small parking lot. Make sure you go left when the path splits. Also, it is open from dawn to dusk so it is usually open after 5pm (unlike what google says). The property is managed by the trustees so the footprints are generally well-maintained and there are bits of information (in both English and Spanish). It is pretty cool to think that you are standing somewhere where a real dinosaur once stood. Everyone should get to see a real dinosaur footprint at least once in their life and this is the place to do it!
Such a fun place. Remarkable to imagine dinosaurs walking up/through the riverthe ripples from the pools.
Take 5 more minutes and walk to the river, cross the tracks. It's worth the view.
