Higganum Reservoir State Park is a tranquil, undeveloped public recreation area. It spans 147 acres and offers fishing, hiking trails, and bird-watching opportunities. The park's reservoir provides scenic views of water surrounded by dense forestland which changes color with the seasons. Despite its lack of facilities or picnic areas, it remains popular among locals for its natural beauty.

Connecticut has made state parks, forests, trails, historic sites and beaches more accessible to our residents so they can enjoy the many attractions and beauty they offer. Under the Passport to the Parks program, parking fees are now eliminated at Connecticut State Parks for those with Connecticut registered vehicles.
