Saturday, June 11 from 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM

Join Berkshire Natural Resources Council (BRNC) in hiking the northern section of The High Road on Yokun Ridge. The hike will begin at Bousquet Mountain, gradually climbing the switchback turns and stone steps to the Mahanna Cobble vista. There is a spectacular view and stone bench at the vista with uninterrupted views south over Kennedy Park and Yokun Ridge. From there, it’ll continue on the Yokun Ridge Trail for 1.5 miles to the expanse western facing view on Yokun Seat where everyone will stop and enjoy lunch. This section encompasses open ridgeline as well as woodland trail and sustainably built stone features. This will be our turnaround location. We’ll retrace our steps and return to Bousquet Mountain.  

The High Road, which is a long-term initiative to make connections from towns to trails and along clusters of conservation land, allows hikers to explore the scenic Berkshires. Yokun Ridge is the first High Road route to open connecting Pittsfield to Lenox. For current route information visit bnrc.org/the-high-road. 

Please note that final signage from Bousquet Mountain to Mahanna Cobble is in development.
