About 4.5 miles from the village of Kent, in the beautiful Litchfield Hills, the easy but steep Kent Falls Trail will take you across a quaint covered bridge, and after about quarter mile you will start feeling the cool mist of the falling water.

The clear water of a mountain stream falls 250 feet into a dark pool in a series of falls before it spills into Housatonic River. Even before you reach the falls, you will find three observation decks that offer spectacular views. Kent Falls park is great trout fishing spot and has several pleasant picnic areas.

The best times to visit the falls is spring when the melting snow dramatically increases the amount of falling water, and in the fall, when the trees turn on their spectacularly colorful show.
