Maggie Katz

Lovely circular local little known trail that’s a flat walk through the woods with about 1/4 of the walk with pleasant views along the Housatonic River. It includes crossing the railroad track.1+ mile. Well marked as you walk it and maintained.The first time you try to find the trail while driving it’s easy to miss the trail head. There is a new tiny space to park 2-3 cars. Trail is on the right when coming from near the golf course. Look it up on the Stockbridge Laurel Hill website for more details.Perfect when you want something easy and don’t want a long or steep walk.

Nice easy hike along the river.

This is a good short trail. More of a walk in the woods than a hike.
