The Pachaug Trail is a 28-mile (45 km) Connecticut hiking trail and is one of the Blue-Blazed hiking trails maintained by the Connecticut Forest and Park Association. It is a horseshoe shaped trail.

The trail is located in the towns of Voluntown in New London County and Sterling in Windham County in eastern Connecticut as well as Hopkinton, Rhode Island. The trail is mostly within the Pachaug State Forest.

The Pachaug Trail was a much larger trail in the 1930s and 1940s but it has been one of the Blue-Blazed Trails most drastically shrunk by post-World War 2 housing developments.
