McLean Game Refuge
Miles of marked trails across three towns.
Granby · Hartford County · Connecticut
Granby sits where the Farmington Valley climbs into foothills — dairy pastures, orchards and a game refuge of thousands of acres threaded with trails.
Why Granby
Granby wears its agricultural history openly: working dairy farms on Route 189, the town-run Holcomb Farm with its arts programs and trail network, and Lost Acres Vineyard pouring among the hills. Salmon Brook Park anchors the center with ballfields, gardens and a pond.
The McLean Game Refuge — thousands of acres given to the public across Granby, Simsbury and Granby’s western hills — means the town owns an outdoor life most suburbs only promise. Granby Land Trust additions keep adding ridgelines and meadows to the map.
