Naugatuck State Forest, State forest in Connecticut, United States
Naugatuck State Forest contains multiple trails through dense woodlands, streams, and varied terrain across several connected parcels of protected land.
The forest gained protection status in the early 20th century as part of Connecticut's initiative to preserve natural resources and watershed areas.
The forest serves as an outdoor classroom where local schools conduct nature studies and environmental education programs throughout the year.
Visitors can access the forest through multiple entrance points, with parking areas available near major trailheads and recreational zones.
The forest maintains a network of cold water streams that support native brook trout populations in their natural habitat.
