"Hike a passage of the Appalachian Trail right from town. This flat, river-side stretch doesn’t require hiking books, and can be enjoyed with shopping bags in tow. The easy trail is a great place to stretch your legs after a long drive and get close to nature without fully committing to a wooded endeavor."

It's an extremely short but beautiful trail (at least the northern part). In general it's a river promenade connecting Main St near St. Peter's Church and Bridge St. It's not a complete trail as the middle part goes on River St. The northern part is a few feet lower than street level and has compact soil which gives it a natural feeling. Since it is connected to the street level by stairs it is not accessible for wheelchairs/strollers. The southern part is street level and mostly paved. Both parts have some plaques and viewing points to the river.

Beautiful little walk along the river! Cute trail with beautiful views. You can enjoy the waters sound while walking trough.

Another nice afternoon in Great Barrington on a May Sunday. So many grand buildings to take in on a stroll as well as artistic boutiques. # Very pretty walk along the river in a fun town, especially on an Autumn day.

Such a beautiful walk and peaceful. Not a hard walk and easy for most to complete. Loved reading about the history and especially William Dubois trailblazing civil rights leader whose birth place was Great Barrington Ma.

It was nice little walk along river after enjoying GB. Very peaceful, you can seat on stone bench and just relax.

Lovely in all seasons flat short one mile round trip walk along the river. Park at the end of Park Street in Stockbridge and cross the foot- bridge over the Housatonic River. Follow the dirt path on your left immediately after you get off the bridge. Enjoy.

The entrance is hard to find, but the trail is very beautiful with the river view!

Nice quiet walk but short. It was easy pushing our son's wheelchair. Informative signs on trees and history helpful, especially the info on DuBois.
