About Platt Hill State Park

Hiking trails cross 159 acres of undeveloped land here, leading to spots for picnicking and views over the surrounding countryside. No buildings or developed facilities mark the grounds, leaving the acreage largely as open woods and terrain. The setting sits in the town of Winchester, offering a straightforward mix of walking routes and lookout points rather than built attractions.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
