Fall is almost here and it is the perfect time for a scenic day trip! If you are looking for a great little drive, I highly recommend a trip up the Lost Villages Scenic Byway in Western, Massachusetts. This gorgeous 40-mile strip of land along Route 122 offers beautiful views and many interesting stops. As you drive, you will pass through the backroads of the small towns of Orange, New Salem, Petersham, Barre, Oakham, Rutland, and Paxton.
