What is the Best Road Trip in Massachusetts?
If you happen to find yourself on the western side of the Bay State, this road trip stretches 70 miles and has some of the most amazing scenery you could ask for. You may have already guessed that this road trip is along the Mohawk Trail.
Here's what '24/7 Tempo' had to say about naming Mohawk Trail among their list of the best road trips in every state:
The Mohawk Trail, one of the nation’s first auto-touring roads, was originally a Native American trade and travel route. Beginning in Williamstown, wind through picturesque mountains and valleys, visiting North Adams, a small town with a burgeoning arts scene, and the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls. Hikers can explore the Mohawk Trail State Forest and see some of the the tallest trees in the state before ending the drive in Erving.
Perhaps you want to start planning your road trips now so you'll be ready to jump on Route 2 as soon as possible as the Spring temps are starting to warm up quite a bit. Enjoy, Massachusetts!
