From the vibrant gardens to the refreshing swimming holes, The Nutmeg State is full of astonishing beauty. Conde Nast Traveler recently named Kent Falls State Park the most beautiful place in Connecticut, and we couldn’t agree more. We all love meandering through the quaint covered bridge into the forested hiking trails. Dipping our feet into the cool water always reminds us of summer. Let’s take a closer look at the most gorgeous place in Connecticut.

Kent Falls State Park was established in 1919 when the White Memorial Foundation gave 200 acres of land to the state of Connecticut.
