Nature
Mount Greylock State Reservation is a twelve-thousand-acre public forest preserve and state park centered on the highest point in Massachusetts, spanning Mount Greylock and nearby lands in several northwestern towns. Established in 1898 as the state’s first public land set aside specifically for forest preservation, it later saw major development during the 1930s through Civilian Conservation Corps projects, including Bascom Lodge, the Thunderbolt Ski Trail and Shelter, summit road improvements, and the Veterans War Memorial Tower. Today it remains both a protected mountain landscape and a recreation area, with extensive trails, seasonal summit roads, camping, and broad scenic views.
