Waterfall Hikes Near Bridgeport, CT

Bridgeport sits on Long Island Sound where tidal marshes, coastal bluffs and low glaciated ridges slope into river valleys and pocket gorges. Nearby waterfall hikes are mostly moderate routes through wooded river canyons and rocky ridgelines, with a few short roadside cascades and easy park walks; the contrast between coastal plain and exposed bedrock, plus close urban access, gives hikers varied, easily reached terrain.
