What are some waterfall hikes in Massachusetts?
From the tallest waterfall in MA to quick and easy roadside cascades, there are plenty of waterfall hikes to experience. Here are a few little-known waterfall hikes in Massachusetts that you can enjoy with your family or friends:
- Umpachene Falls, New Marlborough, MA: Enjoy a short nature walk in Umpachene Falls Park to reach this cool multi-tiered waterfall coming from the Umpachene River and flowing into the Konkapot River. The park is a scenic spot for a picnic or a summer swim at the base of the falls.
- Cascades Trail, North Adams, MA: This nicely-sized 2.2-mile out-and-back trail leads you through a beautiful forest along the Notch Brook that trickles over moss-covered rocks. At the end of the trail, you'll discover a special waterfall hidden away in a small cavern surrounded by rock walls and tall trees. It is a quiet oasis in the woods not far from the city that we truly enjoy anytime we want to relax in nature for a moment.
- Bear’s Den Falls, New Salem, MA: Bear’s Den Falls is another easy-access waterfall that makes for a quiet getaway in the woods. Park along Neilson Road in New Salem, then walk about a quarter mile to the falls. Even though the hike is short, you can spend as long as you want exploring the area and playing in the rocky stream at the base of the waterfall. If the day is hot, a little wading in the cool water wouldn't be out of the question.
