The Longest Trail in Fairfield County
The Norwalk River Valley Trail will be the longest trail in Fairfield County — 30 miles of trail connecting Calf Pasture Beach in Norwalk, Connecticut to Rogers Park in Danbury, passing through Wilton, Ridgefield, and Redding along the way.
NRVT will give all the chance to hike, bike, run, walk, stroll with a baby, or walk with a furry friend along the Norwalk River, along ponds, and up lovely Connecticut hills. This trail recognizes that good mental and physical health come from spending time in Mother Nature and that we all don’t want to get in our cars to go somewhere.
The 10-foot-wide paved and stone dust trail accommodates everyone and is handicap accessible. Currently, there are nearly 13 completed miles to enjoy with an additional 3 miles in pre-constructions phases. More plans are in progress along the entire route.
We look forward to completing more miles of this wonderful journey – with you and for you!
