Connecticut

Connecticut's topography is a diverse landscape characterized by a mix of mountainous regions, lowlands, and coastal areas. The state can be broadly divided into five geographical regions: the Taconic Section, which features the highest point in Connecticut at Bear Mountain (2,380 feet / 725 meters), has steep hills and rugged terrain in the northwest; the Connecticut Valley Lowland, a central region averaging about 30 miles (48 kilometers) wide, hosts gentle slopes and small rivers; the Eastern New England Upland, known for its narrow river valleys and low hills, is heavily forested; and the Coastal Lowlands along the southern shore, a narrow strip of land featuring beaches and lower ridges. This varied elevation creates a unique blend of habitats and landscapes, contributing to Connecticut's rich biodiversity and scenic beauty.
