Looking to break out of your typical outdoor rec routine? Discover the hidden gems of the Berkshires on this new website

There’s so much to explore in the Berkshires – over a third of our land is protected and open to the public for all kinds of outdoor recreation activities. A new website, berkshiresoutside.org, will help you get out and enjoy all the region has to offer, including everything from trailheads to tent sites and bike paths to beaches. Search by your favorite outdoor activity, or by town to see what different parts of the county have to offer. It’s a user-friendly portal to your next outdoor adventure! Check it out and don’t forget to take a look at the long list of resources – guides, clubs & leagues, and retail and rental sites to get you geared up to get outside in 2024.

This new site was created by Berkshire Regional Planning Commission along with several regional partners. We’re proud to be a part of this county-wide effort to help people safely enjoy the natural beauty of the Berkshires!
