Relatively easy hike to 1000 foot panoramic fall foliage views of Housatonic Valley & 3 states. Diverse forest, meadow, & river ecosystems.
About this Event

This weekend is predicted to be the peak of fall folliage in the South Berkshires and this is one of the best places to see it in the South Berkshires because you can see 3 states and the whole Housatonic river valley from this 1000 foot peak. If needed, we will divide into two groups, the turtles that will take their time & cover less territory & elevation, and the hares, who will move a little faster and cover more territory & elevation.

AFTER-HIKE LUNCH: Join us for an optional After-Hike Lunch at The Sugar & Rye Deli, 139 South Main Street Sheffield, MA 01257, one the best brunch/lunch spots in the South Berkshires.

  • $10-$20 Tax-Deductible Donation, in cash, or check made out to "BSCC" (Q-MoB's 501(c)3 Non-Profit Fiscal Sponsor), or so you never have to donate at any regular Q-MoB event, or just come for FREE if this is the very 1st Q-MoB event you have ever attended

  • Appropriate footwear for hiking in potentially wet, muddy, rocky portions of the trail
