Town of Chaplin

Chaplin stands as a rare gem, built from scratch in the early 19th century and remarkably unchanged since, preserving a vivid snapshot of 1820s and 1830s architecture and community planning. The pristine Natchaug River winds through, surrounded by scenic ponds, lakes, and dams. Outdoor lovers will find miles of hiking and horse trails within Natchaug State Forest and the nearby Goodwin Forest. As part of the Last Green Valley National Heritage Corridor, Chaplin is dedicated to conserving its abundant natural resources.
