Situated in Middletown, CT, Mt Higby offers several trail options. We undertook a medium-level hike covering approximately 3.5 miles in 2 hours, achieving an elevation gain of 972ft. It was certainly a workout - sweaty and challenging, but the vistas were absolutely worth it!! I reckon it would be an enchanting autumn hike. Enjoy breathtaking panoramas that stretch from Mount Tom in MA all the way to Long Island Sound. The initial scenic overlooks can be reached by a brief ascent to the ridge. As you continue along the ridgeline, you'll encounter even more stunning vistas and ideal picnic spots. Mount Higby – New England Trail
