About this map

The Housatonic River winds through this valley in the southern Berkshires, anchoring a landscape where industrial heritage and recreation converge. In the town of Great Barrington, the presence of the Penn Central railroad and a Limekiln near the Appalachian Trail reflects the area's long history of extraction and transport. To the east, the steep slopes of Beartown Mountain and the Beartown State Forest dominate the terrain, offering a stark contrast to the developed corridors of Risingdale and Van Deusenville.
