About This Trail
It was easy to stroll. The Pope-Riddle house is a must-see when visiting the Hill-Stead Museum. You can access the trails from the museum parking lot. There are a number of small loop trails through the woods and wetlands. It was great bird watching. The property is accessible to hikers from the Blue Trail. The loop is made up of the Bittersweet, Woodland, and Swamp Oak trails.
