Sleigh Bells Ring in Connecticut: Where to Find Scenic Family Rides

A quintessentially New England pastime in the winter is the sleigh ride. Here's a list of places around Middletown where you can partake.

There's a whole song dedicated to sleigh rides. Fun fact: "Sleigh Ride" was composed by then Woodbury, Connecticut, resident Leroy Anderson during a heat wave in July.

We've compiled a list of places in Connecticut where you can go on a sleigh ride. When available, information on costs is noted.
