In addition to the standard catechism answer (I assume Westminster), please see John Piper's excellent treatment of this in Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist.

Yes, the Standard Westminister Catechism (Is there any other?) answer: The chief goal (not the only one) but the Chief goal - end - of man is to Glorify God and to Enjoy Him forever.

I think that sums it up quite well, thanks.

Interesting link. Will go back later to check it out more fully.
