Notes: We usually park either at the Pinetum or nearby Bible Street Park (where there is a ‘back entrance’ trail). There is a third lot on Orchard Street, but it is small and often crowded.
So close to town but just a wonderful place to wander around with your furry friend. Both parks are pieces of former estates and offer a variety of trail types – from wide and paved to narrow paths through woods and marsh. Not to be missed; the ruins of Wyndygoul, home to Barbara Tuchman, author of ‘The Guns of August.’ One of Greenwich’s gems.
On your way home, stop off at Scarpelli’s and pickup some of their famous homemade sausage.
