Miles Standish Road

Trail Overview

Like many dirt roads in Connecticut, this one winds through the Babcock Pond Wildlife Management Area, offering a fun and scenic ride. Expect a few deep mud holes--nothing a stock 4WD vehicle can't handle with a bit of caution. After rainfall, some mud holes can exceed 12 inches in depth. The road is narrow in spots, but there are areas to pull over and let other vehicles pass. Several ponds along the route are accessible by short hikes, making this a great spot for both off-roading and enjoying nature.
