Oswegatchie Hills Nature Preserve Photo Gallery
The Oswegatchie Hills Nature Preserve is one of the largest swaths of open space along Connecticut's highly developed shoreline. More than 3 miles of trails pass through an abandoned pink granite quarry, twist through blueberry bushes over a high hill and lead to overlooks of a picturesque pond where turtles bask in the sun on top of granite boulders.
