I am amazed that I have a Lucky 7 group here. The more I looked the more I found. I also have a Lucky 7 just east of the park and another across the river in East Hartford.
During the week you might spend more time searching for a parking spot than finding these 7 waymarks. There is limited free parking behind the Capital Building at N41 45.852 W072 40.848. On the weekends I've found parking all around the park, even near the carousel.
With a little extra walking you can find a lot more waymarks. Just by stopping by the Capital and Memorial Arch you can log 10 waymarks.
To get around the city for free, keep your eyes open for the Star Shuttle. Hop on the hydrogen fuel cell bus for a zero emission ride through the city.
Here is information about the FREE shuttle.
