Recreation

Wilton Wildlife is a wonderful recreational resource and a great place to enjoy the outdoors.  Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park promotes passive recreation, muscle-powered activities not requiring any sort of structure or development.

You’ll find more than twenty-five miles of marked trails you, your family, and friends can enjoy at no charge.  You can visit and explore on your own time, at your own pace, or take part in a scheduled event.  Whether you want to stroll quietly through the forests and meadows with a friend or participate in a formal snowshoe event, Wilton Wildlife has something for you.

Informal Recreation Opportunities

Trails are open to the public and available for walking, running, hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, bird watching, nature photography, and hunting in season (on state and county-owned land) .

Formal Recreation Opportunities

Wilton Wildlife offers recreation-based programs focused on particular activities.  Snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are two examples.

Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park partners with the Saratoga Stryders each summer to sponsor the 5K Fun Run Series at Camp Saratoga.  This series of five 5K runs benefits Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park.

Wilton Wildlife also teams with the Saratoga Stryders on an annual 8K Snowshoe Race at Camp Saratoga.  Usually a qualifier for the National Snowshoe Championship, racers from across the northeast attend.  Proceeds benefit Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park.
