Tips from locals
Up and down hike in Stockbridge, MA. 30-45 minutes to the top. At the top, there is a tower you can climb for an awesome view.
Laura’s Tower & Ice Glen: Laura’s Tower trail will take you through old pine and hemlock forest, rock outcroppings, birch and mountain laurel. The reward at the end of this steep 3/4 mile assent is the relic of an old metal fire tower, which offers a panoramic view of the Berkshires, NY Catskills and Vermont’s Green Mountains. On the Ice Glen trail you will climb over and around magnificent rock outcroppings as you navigate though this magical glacial ravine, lined with old growth trees, the oldest in the northeast. The Glen stays cool year round, and you may even see snow and ice in the middle of summer! A host favorite, and a must see in Stockbridge.
