Barkhamsted Reservoir Loop

From RT202 in Nepaug (between Canton and Torrington) begin on RT 219. Continue across RT44 (in Pine Meadow) through the twisties. Turn left onto RT318 for a beautiful view of the reservoir (and plenty of room to stop). Continue on RT318 and turn right onto RT 181 which will take you through Peoples State Forest. In Hartland turn left onto RT20 which will take you into Riverton. As you go through the center of Riverton go over the small bridge which crosses the river and make an immediate left onto River Road (not well marked, but across from the furniture factory). Take River Road to the 4-way stop at RT318. Make a left onto RT318, cross the steel bridge and follow RT318 back through the reservoir, making a right back onto RT219. Follow RT219 back to the start at RT202.
