The enriched CSV doesn’t have content for Mooween yet – it’s one of the parks that needs enrichment. Here’s the description:

Tucked into the rolling hills of Lebanon in New London County, Mooween State Park offers 577 acres of quintessential Connecticut woodland waiting to be explored. The park’s terrain blends hardwood forests, rocky outcroppings, and seasonal streams that paint a vivid picture through every season — fiery autumn foliage, quiet snow-dusted trails in winter, and lush green canopy from late spring through summer.

Hikers will find a network of trails winding through varied terrain, from gentle paths suited for families to more rugged stretches that reward with elevated views of the surrounding countryside. The park is a solid choice for birdwatching, with warblers and woodpeckers active in the mixed oak and hickory stands. Mountain biking is permitted on designated trails, and the park’s size gives riders enough room to build a satisfying loop. In winter, the trails see use from cross-country skiers and snowshoers when conditions allow.

With a 4.6 rating across 166 reviews, Mooween draws consistent praise from visitors who appreciate its uncrowded feel — a genuine advantage for anyone looking to escape the busier parks closer to the coast. The relatively low profile means you can often have long stretches of trail to yourself, even on weekends.

The best window for visiting runs from mid-April through late October, with peak fall color typically arriving in mid-to-late October. Pack water and wear sturdy footwear — the rocky sections can be uneven. There are no entrance fees, making Mooween an easy, low-commitment outing for a morning hike or a full afternoon in the woods.
