Connecticut gets a bad rap as a boring state. If you’ve spent any time in the marvelous Constitution State, you know nothing could be further from the truth. There are so many beautiful places and natural wonders in Connecticut. It’s an outdoor lover’s dream and it’s just waiting to be explored. One park in Connecticut that we feel doesn’t get enough love is Steep Rock Preserve. This 1,000-acre haven is filled with trails to hike and has a magical tunnel that will have you feeling like you stepped into a storybook.
