Join the BNRC and OLLI at BCC for this spring loop hike at Mahanna Cobble. This outing is rated moderate to difficult with both up and downhill stretches. The hike will be around 3 miles. Registration opens April 6 at 9am on OLLI’s website.

Mahanna Cobble is the northern anchor of The High Road, a trail which will eventually become a series of connected trails that will run the length of Berkshire County. The trail begins in the Bosquet Mountain parking lot. Beginning with a steep climb, it winds through the eastern side of Lenox Mountain to the top of the cobble. In April, spring wildflowers will be blooming along the way, an added treat on this beautifully constructed trail. A bench honoring founding BNRC Executive Director, George Wislocki and the typical boulders of the Berkshires five cobbles, offer places to rest at the cobble while enjoying the unbroken view to the south. This trail is moderate to difficult due to the elevation gain. Please consider this before signing up for the hike.

Hiking poles are strongly recommended, and good hiking shoes are essential.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

If we need to cancel the hike due to rain, we will notify participants by email by 7:00 AM the day of the hike.
