2. 5.0 Farmington Canal Heritage Trail (7 reviews)
   - Great place to bike, or hike, or roller skate ...
   Biking Trails • Jogging Paths & Tracks
   
   
   The canals are miles of paved pathways created for recreational use over what used to be miles of railroad tracks. Hikers, runners, bikers, dog walkers, skaters – – you name it, use this wonderful designated area. There are parking lots peppered throughout the course, spaced with enough distance between to decrease the interruption in the pathway. On this day we chose the area closest to the Farmington River between Unionville and Collinsville — quiet, and serene, the river on one side of us as a picturesque backdrop. Grateful for the thoughtful use of old ways repurposed!! We plan on exploring many of the other sections of the canal See more..
