The Westwoods Trails is primarily used for hiking, mountain biking, backpacking, picnicking, and in the winter, snowshoeing.

The Westwoods Trails are completely contained in the western section of Guilford, Connecticut.

Conditions on exposed ridge tops and summits may be harsher during cold or stormy weather.

Ice can form on exposed ledges and summits, making hiking dangerous without special equipment.

Wearing bright orange clothing during the hunting season (Fall through December) is recommended.
