HIKING BABCOCK PRESERVE in GREENWICH, CT
Thursday March 28, 2019 10AM
The Babcock Preserve is a 300 acre tract of forested land in Greenwich, north of the Merritt. It is the largest park in Greenwich and consists of several hiking trails over a relatively easy terrain. It was acquired by the Town of Greenwich in 1972, partially by gift and partially by purchase from the Babcock Family.
The park is very tranquil at this time of the year. We will be hiking approximately 3 ½ miles which should take us till about 12.30pm.. More than half the trail is relatively flat, the rest is a gentle slope
which isn’t very strenuous.
As usual wives are invited and they will find this hike particularly enjoyable.
After the hike we will have lunch( optional) at a nearby restaurant.
