Celebrate New Year With A Special Hike In Avon

AVON, CT — Just because the calendar says "January" and the weather is, to put it bluntly, wintery, doesn't mean one can't enjoy the outdoors.

Proving that Saturday morning, Jan. 4, is the Avon Land Trust and the Avon Recreation and Parks Department, which is hosting a "New Year's Hike" at the Fisher Meadows Recreation Area.

The event starts at 10 a.m. and it will traverse an "easy, 2 - 2.5-mile path along the Farmington River and around Fisher Farm lake.

Participants will start the hike in the south parking Lot at 775 Old Farms Road.

The Avon Land Trust is a local nonprofit dedicated to preserving Avon's open and undeveloped spaces so they can be enjoyed for generations to come.
