Review:

Named after Charles Ives, the state composer of Connecticut, the Ives Trail Greenway is a 20-mile hiking trail that stretches from Bennett's Pond in Ridgefield to Redding Open Space. The trail passes through four towns and crosses over both public and private lands, with terrain ranging from gently rolling hills to rugged cliffs. Several parts of the trail are not suitable for inexperienced hikers; visitors use the trail at their own risk and are advised to turn back if they encounter any sections that feel unsafe. Motorized vehicles are not permitted anywhere on the trail, but horses and mountain bikes are welcome on some sections.
