Mansfield Hollow State Park

Mansfield Hollow State Park is a public recreation area occupying 251 acre of leased lands on the western shore of 500 acre Mansfield Hollow Lake in the town of Mansfield, Connecticut. The state park is one portion of the 2300 acre leased by the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for recreational and wildlife management purposes. Geologic features of the park include remnants of the last glacial period, where retreating glaciers left kames, eskers, and kettles. Recreational opportunities include facilities for boating, fishing, picnicking, hiking, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing. The park is traversed by the southeastern leg of the Nipmuck Trail.
