Hanging Rock is located in Hanging Rock State Park, in the Sauratown Mountain Range near Danbury. It is quite large and isolated from other peaks, which makes it an impressive sight from a distance and affords it some fantastic views from the summit. Hanging Rock State Park is home to a number of hiking trails as well as some cliffs and opportunities for rock climbing and bouldering. Several clear streams run through the Sauratown Mountains and form some beautiful cascades and waterfalls along the trails. Camping is permitted in designated areas inside Hanging Rock State Park.
