Sunnybrook State Park is a public recreation area encompassing 464 acres (188 ha) in the town of Torrington, Connecticut.[3] The state park is the southwestern terminus for the blue-blazed John Muir Trail which crosses Paugnut State Forest for two miles to the loop trail at Burr Pond State Park.[4] Another park trail bears the name of former property owner Edwin Fadoir.[5] In addition to hiking, the park offers picnicking, hunting, and fishing along the East Branch Naugatuck River.[3] The park opened in 1970[5] and entered the state rolls in the 1971 edition of the Connecticut Register and Manual.[6]
