History Hike of Highland Park
2026-12-26 13:00 - 15:00 (America/New_York) | Case Parklet at Highland Park, 670 Spring St, manchester, CT, 06040, United States
Explore the Case Brothers National Historic District in the Highland Park section of Manchester. Includes history walk, visit to the 1917 cabin, and an optional climb to the lookout with its scenic view of Hartford and beyond. Meet at the small parking lot on Spring Street near the historic bridge and waterfall, not far from the intersection of Spring Street and Glen Road (GPS 670 Spring Street). Those who want a short history walk may end their walk at the dam at Case Pond near Spring Street. For those who want a more strenuous event, we will continue uphill along steep, bumpy, and rocky terrain. Please wear sturdy sneakers or hiking boots. No dogs, please. Rain or shine; extreme weather cancels. Please check the street signs carefully before parking to avoid parking tickets. Town Historian Susan Barlow will lead the moderately paced walk.
