History
The gorge through which the Farmington River flows has been known as "Satan’s Kingdom" since the 1870s, when the construction of the New Haven and Northampton Railroad along the river proved particularly difficult.[3]
The recreation area was added to the roll of Connecticut state parks in 2012.[4]
Activities and amenities
Tube rentals are offered by a concessionaire. A 2.5-mile (4.0 km) trip encounters three sets of rapids.[5] Hiking trails in neighboring Nepaug State Forest, including the Tunxis Trail, are accessible from Satan's Kingdom Road on the south side of the bridge.[6]
