From the southern trail head, the Wilton Loop West is accessed by proceeding along Route 106/Wolfpit Road to the center of town. Currently, the west side trail is mostly on or along roads, with paved or stone dust surface. A partly finished section of the loop runs from Wolfpit Road and Route 7 to Schenk’s Island, and then to the town center along River Road. Another access point for longer stretches of the west side trail is over the new pedestrian bridge from the Wilton Metro North train stop. This bridge crosses over the tracks and leads right onto the NRVT at Merwin Meadows Park. This section of trail is often utilized by the Wilton High School track teams, it continues north by the area of the Dana Dam take-down, and then hits the north end of the loop in Allen’s Meadows at Olmstead Hill Road. There are beautiful views of the Norwalk River from this section and the remaining sections meander through old woodlands and wetlands with some boardwalks.
