Berkshires

The Berkshires in north-west Massachusetts with their green hills, little white churches, picturesque villages and narrow country lanes, epitomise picture-book New England. A drive along the Mohawk Trail (ME 2) offers all these features as it winds from Millers Falls in the east to Williamstown in the west. From there the U.S. 7 to the south is scarcely less romantic. The Hancock Shaker Village beyond is another attraction.
