The last couple of months I have not been able to take any significant walks. I am still getting my miles every day, but not an adventure walk.
The other day I decided to go on a nice round-trip walk. Looking at the map I would describe the walk as a rectangle walk.
I started the trip with bus 331 going North on High Ridge Road till the bus came to the end of its run at Briar Brae Road. The walking part came next. I continued going North on High Ridge Road and turned right on Trinity Pass Road.
Trinity Pass Road is a rural road that has great rock outcrops along the route. The road also has Laurel Reservoir on one side.
The reservoir is going to need a lot of rain to fill it up at this point.
Trinity Pass Road starts in Stamford, goes through New Canaan for a bit and then the road enters New York State and Pound Ridge.
At Scotts Corners I turn right on Westchester Ave and head straight to New Canaan. The walk from Scotts Corners to the New Canaan Train Station was 90 minutes.
New Canaan has many beautiful homes and churches
along the walk. Downtown New Canaan has a varied selection of stores and restaurants. It is well worth a visit and if you take the train. The train drops you off right in the center of the town.
I took the train back to Stamford and then took bus 331 to my house thus completing the rectangle.
This trip accomplished two of my writing goals for this year.
USR and WBT
USR is urban, suburban and Rural
WBT is walk, bus and train.
