  • The Kettletown Trails are a 4.6-mile (7.4 km) Blue-Blazed hiking trail "system" in the lower Housatonic River valley in Fairfield County and are in the towns of Southbury and Oxford -- primarily in the Kettletown State Park and the Jackson Cove recreation area belonging to the town of Oxford. The Pomperaug "Blue-Blazed" linear trail is an in-land trail from near the northern main entrance to the park in Southbury traveling along the inland border of the Kettletown State Park to and south of the Oxford Jackson Cove beach recreation area. The Pomperaug trail connects to another trail which provides a path which crosses the Housatonic/Lake Zoar at the Stevenson Dam to the south and then north to Paugussett State Forest on the western shore of Lake Zoar (the section of the Housatonic River between the Stevenson Dam to the south and the Shepaug Dam to the north). The Crest "Blue-Blazed" linear trail is a coastal trail which aligned with the eastern shore of Lake Zoar through Kettletown State Park from north of the Jackson Cove recreation area up to the northern main entrance to the park in Southbury. The Pomperaug and Crest trails can be used together as a "loop" trail. There are shorter side trails in the park which have rectangular blue blazes with red, white, orange or yellow squares on their bottom border. The Campground side trail connects the Lake Zoar shore campground section of Kettletown State Park with the Pomperaug trail. The Miller trail is a 1+ mile loop trail around the northern boundary of Kettletown State Park with scenic overlooks of Lake Zoar. Notable features include a few steep climbs and semi-obscured scenic views of Lake Zoar (Housatonic River). The Kettletown trails system is maintained largely through the efforts of the Connecticut Forest and Park Association. The Pomperaug Trail is approximately one mile north of the Stevenson Dam. It is possible to walk from the Pomperaug Trail to the Paugussett and Zoar Trails. (en)
