Caleb’s Peak – Appalachian Trail, Kent CT, Club Getaway

I led a group of guests from Club Getaway on an off-site excursion up a small portion of the Appalachian Trail to Caleb's Peak, overlooking the Kent, CT mountains and valleys. I'd consider this slightly above a beginner hike because the majority of the trail is uphill/downhill. I used my trekking poles to reduce the strain on my knees. It's well worth the view once reaching the summit.

Bull’s Bridge – Appalachian Trail, Kent CT, Club Getaway

I led a group of guests from Club Getaway on this hike along the Housatonic River, covering part of the Appalachian Trail in Kent, CT. The hike was mostly flat, with only slight inclines along the way. At Ned Anderson Memorial Bridge, we stopped to go down to the banks of the Ten Mile River, before turning around to head back. Overall, really beautiful views of some small and medium-sized falls and whitecaps.
