Settled along the west edge of the Connecticut River, Haddam Meadows is a popular state park for both boating and casual walking.

Hiking

There isn’t any true hiking here, but there are paths along the shoreline, if you were to walk the biggest possible out and back/loop along the property you could probably get close to 3 miles, but the most common option seems to be the mile or so along the flat bank.

Boating

A very popular boat launch into the Connecticut River with ample room for trailer parking.  The launch itself is a concrete ramp with a short dock on either side.

This launch is a good option for those looking to visit Haddam Island State Park.

History:

Established as a state park in 1944.
