Lallement is an easy, short hike in Connecticut, about 1.26 miles long and rising about 80 feet from the low point at 306 feet to a high of 437 feet. The route is a point-to-point trail, and the steepest part comes at about 0.39 miles in, with a 16% grade. Bikes are allowed on the route. The nearest town is Bowers Hill, about 2.1 miles away. The trail network is labeled LWN, and the estimated time for the trip is about half an hour. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Ansonia run from highs around 77°F in June to about 82°F in July and August. That station sits roughly 300 feet below the trail, so temperatures on the hike run a bit cooler. Other hikes start right next door: Boulder Dash is 0.2 miles away and Misgnomer is 0.3 miles away. Rolling Coal and Red Line are each about 0.6 miles off. Climbers can find Webb Mountain Park about 1.6 miles away.
