Went hiking during the end winter. Almost everything was covered in snow & the foot trails were not properly visible. The atmosphere was dull & the trees were obviously without foliage; but all this added to the experience in a challenging way. That made the hike a great experience for me.

Mount greylock is the tallest peak in Massachusetts. The Appalachian trail traverses the summit. There is a memorial at the summit as well as a hotel and restaurant. We met some people traveling the Appalachian trail and enjoyed their stories. The view from the summit is beautiful. There are trails everywhere for hiking. I was glad to have made this... More

Worth seeing and hiking in. I loved Money Brook falls - nice hike. It was also very nice to hike a bit of the AT, even though it was just a few hundred feet.

My wife and I climbed Mount Greylock last weekend. It is a beautiful hike, and the views are truly breathtaking. We started on Hopper by Haley Farm and went up to the summit which was 4 miles. When we got to the summit we planned on eating lunch. That was a mistake because the restaurant was closed for a private... More

We visited Mt. Greylock on 10/11/12 as part of our recent visit to this area. It was a crisp, sunny day at the North Adams base. We took the scenic drive to the summit, and it grew increasingly cloudy on the way up and we even had snow flurries at the top. But the drive up and down (we took... More

We were visiting family and they took us to Mount Greylock. Absolutely beautiful. We loved the view, even though there were low clouds. The drive up was lovely. We loved the tower at the top and the little lodge. Great place to see fall foliage!

My husband and I drove up to the summit which was on a lovely overcast day. Therefore the views from the top were clouded over but the fall tree footage with all the changing colors was breathtakingly beautiful. Wish we had more time to hike at least part of the Appalachian trail and enjoy a meal. While walking around the... More

Mt. Greylock is the higest point in Massachusetts and from the top gives you an enormous and beautiful view of the Berkshires. The drive up is easy and well worth it. The whole trip, up and down, plus walking around the top of the mountain, takes about 90 minutes.
