Hikes and Walks in the Berkshire Hills

The guide is clear and descriptive. It provides levels of difficulty as well as a time table for each hike or walk. I recomend it to anyone who will be visiting the Berkshires for extended periods of time and really enjoys getting outside. Great for those who live in Boston or other urban areas of eastern Massachusetts and want to explore the other side of the state on weekends. There is one complaint. In my opinion the walks in the book are a waste of space. They may be suitable for the disabled or catch the eye of the wealthy that visit Stockbridge and Lenox..But overall a joke...If you are not great with maps and figuring out your own hikes from topo then this is your book...Your only book... The William College Outing Club in Williamstown, Massachusetts also has a nice guide. I believe you can get it over the internet thru the college website. Visit the Berkshires...Buy a book..Go for a hike!
