  • Rattlesnake Mountain Farmington CT
    This Mountain Hike In Connecticut Leads To Something Awesome Looking for a mountain hike in Connecticut that’s truly unique? Then look no further! At the top of this mountain is a hidden site, unknown by many Connecticut residents. But a little piece of folk history is waiting to be rediscovered by you. So let’s get going! Rattlesnake Mountain in Farmington is a 2.3-mile hike off of Route 6. Part of the Metacomet Ridge, this short trail can be a little taxing for beginners, but it's totally worth it! Be prepared to catch some fantastic sights atop this scenic vista as you explore the rare plants and traprock ridges. An increasing number of locals have begun using the ridges here for rock climbing. They may look for intimidating, but they make for great exercise. Not to mention you'd be climbing volcanic rock. At 750 feet high and 500 feet above the Farmington River Valley, there's no shortage of views. But the coolest thing atop this mountain isn't the sight. It's Will Warren's Den! This boulder rock cave is a local historic site that will leave you breathless. Who knew Connecticut had caves quite like this! 1 The plaque affixed to the cave reads "Said Warren, according to legend, after being flogged for not going to church, tried to burn the village of Farmington. He was pursued into the mountains, where some Indian squaws hid him in this cave." It may not look like much from the outside, but the inside is a cool oasis.
