Avon Town Trails

Avon’s “Other Trails”

I wonder what it’s like to be an Avon lady in Avon. Do they still drive the pink cars? I haven’t seen one in forever. Quite a mystery.

Also a mystery? Figuring out the subtle differences between town owned land (with trails) and Land Trust land (with trails). Avon sort of opened Pandora’s Box for me with regards to this stuff. In Avon, and many other towns, the land trust lists some town owned properties as their own – which I totally understand. No biggie. It makes sense. For instance, one must hike through Hazen Park (Avon owned) to get to the Skyline Trail (Land Trust property) to get up to Heublein Tower from the backside.

Whatever. Here are Avon’s town owned trails that I care to list.


Towns like Avon can afford such handsome woodland bridges, in Hazen Park
