West Hartford is located in central Connecticut 100 miles southwest of Boston and 100 miles northeast of New York City. The "Main Cliff," at Southington's Ragged Mountain, is one of the most popular sites for rock climbing in the state; and the cliff offers climbs for all ability levels. Some climbers consider the faces here to be the best and varied in the entire country. Try your hand at crack climbing or learn fancy foot work as you scramble up the technical traprock faces.
