Bash Bish Falls – Mt Washington MA

Length: About a mile one way

Trail Terrain: Mostly flat, dirt/grass

Difficulty: Easy-Moderate

Stroller Friendly: Yes

Dog Friendly: Yes

Bash Bish State Park is a stone throw away from the New York border, in the south-western corner of Massachusetts. There are several trails to get to the falls, one path that’s very flat and easy to traverse, the other that is very short but very steep. Either way you choose, the falls offer a spectacular scene; dropping over 60 feet into a sparkling pool of water.

The easier trail starts about a mile down the road from the main entrance to the falls. It’s a gradual incline and follows a small river where the water from the falls drains into. Taking this way to the falls makes a great outing for kids or those not wanting the difficulty of the more direct route.
