The John Sherman Hoyt Scout Camp is located on 170 acres of pristine forest and fields in West Redding, Connecticut. This is a primitive facility except for three pavilions, two latrines, and a training cabin. Trails circumscribe the camp which provide for rigorous hikes and up close encounters with myriad wild creatures and native trees and plants. An orienteering course is available for those looking for a more challenging adventure. Information on hiking trail lengths may be found here.Hoyt is an excellent weekend destination as well as a departure point for many off camp experiences.
