About Housatonic River Access - East Sheffield Road
At the south end of East Sheffield Road, visitors can use a small parking area to access the Housatonic River. The access to the river is steep and muddy, so be prepared to get wet. Visitors can paddle north to downtown Great Barrington or south into Sheffield, where a paddler can experience the meandering oxbows of the Housatonic. Visitors can also fish from the shore, but the fish are contaminated and cannot be consumed.
