Connecticut State Parks Connecticut presents an overwhelming array of features splendidly representative of the entire New England region. Enriched by the offerings of the modern busy city; flavored by the charm of the traditional New England town; Connecticut offers a way of life which is both traditional and diverse. Our State Park System reflects this striking contrast as well as typifies the friendly nature of our State.
