Weha Duro is a short, easy mountain biking ride in Connecticut, about 1.3 miles long and roughly 85 feet of elevation gain one way. It is an out-and-back with a high point of about 590 feet and a low of about 493 feet, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.54 miles in, where the grade reaches 8%. The nearest town is Whitings Corner, about 1.2 miles away. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Burlington, CT, run around 70°F in May and 75°F in September, with July the warmest month at about 84°F. That station sits at nearly the same elevation as the ride's start, so temperatures on the route run close to those figures. Backside is a mountain biking spot about half a mile away, and Steven Sauter Rock is about 0.8 miles off. For a hike, the Orange Trail is roughly 1.5 miles away and the Talcott Mt Bypass Trail about 1.9 miles.
