Fantastic views of the Pocumtuck Valley

The ridge offers a terrific short hike into classic Berkshire wilderness. The views the famous "Rock" are wonderful. Try to go in the autumn when the leaves are turning. You will never forget it.

    Well marked Blue Diamond Trail (14 miles) - Just enough challenge and views
    I have always wanted to find this trail and hike from South Deerfield to Greenfield. We will probably finish today. we have been doing the trail in sections as we have only one vehicle. Pocumtuck Ridge has a website so you can read about it and the AMC Massachusetts Book has details, (The trail from Keets Road in Deerfield to Greenfield is a bit confusing but overall this is a fun local thing to do.)

    Nice day hikes near good restaurants/attractions
    Have lived on this ridge for 32 yrs and I wouldn't have lived anywhere else. So much to do here...hike on the ridge at several sites, Historic Deerfield, Yankee Candle, Magic Wings Butterfly..canoeing/kayaking on the Connecticut and Deerfield Rivers. Also popular for bicycling in the flatlands. Come enjoy!
