Join Berkshire Natural Resources Council and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute for a hike!<\/p>\n

This\u00a0hike will include\u00a0all three sections of trail in this BNRC reserve. The trail begins near a wetland and open meadow before entering the forest and ends at the unique rock formation called Whale Rock.\u00a0 By traversing these varied habitats,\u00a0hikers\u00a0may see some of the many birds that call this reserve home, early summer wildflowers, and an apple orchard.<\/p>\n

The trail is easy to moderate with some elevation gain in the last section to Whale Rock.<\/p>\n
