From Stamford · Litchfield Loop

Full-day version that starts in Stamford: it adds the ride there and back to Litchfield Loop. Here is what you'll find on the core stretch:

Litchfield Hills in one afternoon: you leave the Litchfield green, pass Bantam Lake, run the east side of Lake Waramaug and cross to Kent on CT-341 before heading up the Housatonic to Canaan and Norfolk. Colonial villages, a lake and some tight bends around the water. It's a ride for the scenery, not for hurrying: expect cyclists around the lake and heavy US-7 traffic in foliage season.
