Trails with Water Fountains in Connecticut

Connecticut has 39 trails with water fountains in this directory, across 29 cities and towns — West Hartford, Bridgeport, Cheshire, Danbury and 25 more. Somewhere to refill mid-run instead of carrying every mile of water you need.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
