The Hoosic River valley and the high slopes of the Greylock Range dominate this Berkshire County landscape. Modern infrastructure like the Ashuwillticook Rail Trl follows the historical path of industry along the water, connecting the settlements of Berkshire, Farnams, and Cheshire. The central focus is the sprawling Cheshire Reservoir, a water body that has long influenced the local economy and settlement patterns of the surrounding townships. On the eastern and western flanks, the terrain rises sharply toward North Mtn and the Taconic Range, where the Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds through the forested heights.
