A beautiful park with considerably well-maintained trails. My main hike was from Wilbur Cross up the Giant's Stairs to the summit. A 20-minute hike, moderately difficult, with the last 1/8 of a mile being very, very steep. Be prepared if you' re going to go up the Giant's Stairs. The view from the top is breathtaking and well worth the hike.

My family including two teenagers went for a very nice walk today around West Rock Ridge State Park. We took about 2 hours to make a loop of about half the park around the green, light blue, and red trails that included a stop at Judges Rock. There were gorgeous views and it was very peaceful.
