Take Route 9 from middletown into east haddam/Moodus. Then just ollow the signs for Devil's Hopyard State Park.

Took my two teenage boys to devil's hopyard. green trail almost impossible to find, blocked by a fallen tree and not good for kids. Other trails difficult. no maps or help at site or people who knew anything. compared to biking in the white mountains, this place was a complete waste of time.

I love Devil's Hopyard. I live right down the road. It's good for bikes, plus you can go fishing and stuff. The ride down from the vista is cool, and just hanging at the vista is cool and climbing down it too, on the steep side. Devil's Hopyard is a nice relaxing place.
