     Good hiking is available along the Sunrise Trail, and Days Inn Greenfield is a great place to get some rest. Not sufficient hours in a day to enjoy this spot. Going for a hike on the Spring Trail is always a perfect adventure; the snow is great at Berkshire East. Roaring Brook Reservoir commonly gets much precipitation; November is the wettest month with most rain, and February meanwhile is the driest month.
Go for a hike on the Sunset Trail, and if you

You'll meet a lot of folks from Springfield here, and on a pretty day you get a good vista of Bull Hill from Roaring Brook Reservoir. Roaring Brook Reservoir is a glorious lake in the vicinity of Roaring Brook Reservoir, and a delightful close by hotel is Red Roof Inn South Deerfield.

Barton Cove Campground
14 miles away
I have been going there for over 20 years. It is a great place to take a family and if you are lucky, you will get to see the bald eagles (I actually got to see their first flight)....Lovely campground with huge, clean wooded tent sites. Some sites overlook the Connecticut River, and a few offer access to a swimming or fishing beach. There are some high cliffs on the river side of the campground, partly blocked with post and rail fencing. Small children may not respect the fences, so that should be considered when families with kids choose their site. Overall very enjoyable, and I look forward to returning soon....
