SUMMARY:Guided Hike: RRR Brooks - Sara Tenney Trail
DESCRIPTION:Join Williamstown Rural Lands for a 4 mile hike through the Taconic Range: along streams\, through forests and field\, and of course some views\, too! \nFrom Bee Hill Road in Williamstown\, we’ll hike the RRR Brooks Trail along Flora’s Glen Brook\, all the way to the meadows at Taconic Trail State Park. We’ll pause there to admire the view of Mt. Greylock before returning to our start via Bob’s Ski Loop and the Sara Tenney Trail. \nThis is a moderate loop hike that involves a minor stream crossing (2-3 feet across\, on a dry day) at the beginning and end. The trail is rooty and rocky\, with a few short rock staircases. Much of the hike along the RRR Brooks Trail follows a narrow path with a steep drop-off. Throughout\, we’ll encounter the occasional muddy stretch. \nRegistration required: learn more and sign up at the events website. \nWilliamstown Rural Lands is a non-profit\, member-supported land conservation trust. We conserve and promote the forests\, fields\, farms and natural habitats of our region for the benefit of our communities and future generations.

SUMMARY:Guided Hike: Spring Wildflower Walk
DESCRIPTION:Spring ephemerals mark the beginning of flowers in New England\, emerging before the full leafing of deciduous trees. Will we spy the deep maroon of Trilliums\, fanciful Dutchman’s Breeches or Yellow Trout Lily?  Come enjoy a spring stroll through the northern hardwood forest at the base of Berlin Mountain in Williamstown to see what wild ephemerals are up and learn about these hardy early flowers. \nOn this hike\, we will be walking out-and-back along the WRLF Loop Trail\, about 1.5 miles round-trip. This trail goes down a short hill from the parking lot and then continues on a slight hill parallel to Haley Brook\, downhill on the way out and uphill on the way back. We will not be crossing the brook.  Some stretches of trail near the parking lot may be wet. There are some sections of trail with wooden bog bridges. \nRegistration required: learn more and sign up at the event website. \nWilliamstown Rural Lands is a non-profit\, member-supported land conservation trust. We conserve and promote the forests\, fields\, farms and natural habitats of our region for the benefit of our communities and future generations.
