Hiking trails near New Haven, CT

330 trails within 75 miles · 9 with detail pages · 280 within 25 miles

This page lists every named hiking trail in our database whose centroid sits within 75 miles of New Haven. Distance is straight-line from the metro center to the trail's centroid; an actual drive to a trailhead may be longer or shorter depending on which end you start from. Multi-state trails (e.g. the Appalachian Trail) appear here if any portion of their length passes within range.

Always check trail conditions, permits, and water sources with the maintaining organisation — National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service ranger district, or trail association. Mountain trails are often impassable for half the year due to snow.
