Your paddle dips and pulls, and the kayak rocks with the current. You feel the sun on your shoulders. The morning smells of honeysuckle and fresh water, and you are skimming past a great blue heron and an otter’s mudslide. In these hills, you can relax and revel in summer activities.

On swift rivers, white water rafting trips will get beginners gleefully soaked and give more advanced paddlers a taste of rapids.
Adventure parks, zip lines and ropes courses at Ramblewild and Jiminy Peak give a treetop-level view of the mountains, sometimes at high speed.
Across almost a thousand square miles, the Berkshires offers all kinds of outdoor adventures: swimming, running, fishing, biking and more, in the rough or in groomed comfort.
