Norwich, Connecticut to Harkness Park | Through Bozrah, Salem, Niantic & More | Backroads Drive | 4K

Join me for a scenic backroads drive from Norwich, Connecticut to Harkness Memorial State Park in Waterford, Connecticut on April 21, 2026. Taking the long way rather than direct routes, this narrated tour travels through multiple eastern Connecticut towns including Bozrah, Montville, Salem, Chesterfield, Flanders, Niantic, New London, and Uncasville before arriving at the beautiful coastal Harkness Memorial State Park.
This extended backroads journey showcases the rural character and scenic beauty of eastern Connecticut's less-traveled roads. Rather than taking the most direct route, this drive explores quieter backroads through diverse communities - from rural inland towns like Bozrah and Salem to the coastal areas of Niantic and the destination at Harkness Memorial State Park on the Long Island Sound.
Harkness Memorial State Park in Waterford is a stunning coastal park featuring the historic Eolia mansion, formal gardens, and beautiful waterfront views. This backroads approach to reaching Harkness provides a more comprehensive tour of eastern Connecticut's character and landscape.
Live narration throughout provides observations about the backroads traveled, the towns passed through, and the scenic journey to Harkness Memorial State Park.
