Hike Description

  1. Follow the A.T. south from the parking area on Notch Rd. Walk through a forest of red spruce, where, if you keep a sharp eye out, you may be able to discern the bed of the original road to the top of Mount Greylock.
  2. You reach the summit of Mount Williams at 0.9 mile. To the west and below you is Williamstown, surrounded by open fields, while the Taconic Range in New York forms the far horizon.
  3. Retrace your steps to complete the hike.

Directions

From MA Route 2 (Mohawk Trail), turn onto Notch Road. A day use parking area is located about 200 feet south of the trail-crossing on Notch Road, en route to the top of Mount Greylock.
