Around Every Corner of Connecticut

Around Every Corner of Connecticut celebrates the abundance of beautiful destinations and exciting seasonal (and year-round) activities here in Connecticut. We’re not just talking about the well-known state parks, attractions, and museums. Connecticut boasts so much beauty, creativity, and opportunity. Take a friendly llama for a hike, spy a majestic bald eagle sitting in a tree on the banks of the Connecticut River, or maybe a sleigh ride through a snowy pasture is more your speed. There are incredible trails: the Barn Trail, Wine Trail, and Chocolate Trail for starters. Did you know that we even have a Dinosaur Trail?

Using her experience as a travel reporter in the state for more than twenty years, Sarah Cody takes you to her favorite spots. A look at each destination provides additional, valuable, and sometimes little-known information and tips. Coupled by beautiful photographs, the book is a unique and spirited look at Connecticut. Full of New England charm, and brimming with activities, Around Every Corner of Connecticut provides activities and locations for people of all abilities and ages. There are so many incredible places to explore!
