Case Mountain (AKA Seriously, I Hiked a Mountain!)

Location: Manchester, CT

Distance: 5 miles

Vertical rise: 744 ft.

Time: 2.5 hours

Views from the summit of Case Mountain

Beautiful bridge, waterfall and landscape!

On Saturday, July 21, I made my first solo trip up a mountain! Case Mountain is a great mountain for beginners- the trail is well-traveled and fairly easy and thus, a great confidence booster for anyone who is skeptical that they too can hike a mountain. This hike boasts fantastic views of Manchester and Hartford. Enjoy!
