The town also offers old-fashioned ways to enjoy life such as hiking, biking, camping and fishing at State and local parks. Kent is also the perfect destination for those inclined to take a scenic drive, especially in the fall!

Hiking
Experience the scenic, cascading waterfalls in the beautiful Litchfield Hills. Wander across the covered bridge, hike the falls 1/4 mile up along the stair pathway and feel the mist on your face as water rushes 250 feet down into a reflecting pool that joins with Housatonic River. As you hike the easy, but steep, trail stop along the way to enjoy the many scenic views from three observation decks. A designated Trout Park, Kent Falls offers opportunities for fishing as well as picnicking.
