Winter in Lenox
Winter is especially beautiful in the Berkshire Hills – and our towns,
especially Lenox, have a classic New England charm that you are sure
to enjoy, with sophisticated restaurants and shops within walking distance.
Before you get cozy in front of a fireplace at one of our many charming inns,
here are some ideas for outdoor adventures:
1. Skiing & Snowboarding
Home to half of Massachusetts’ 12 ski areas, the Berkshires are a haven for snow bunnies during the winter months. Powder production has already started at several of the larger resorts, and will no doubt soon pick up at the others, giving skiers and snowboarders plenty to choose from for some time on the slopes. When it comes to picking the mountain, lodge and sorting out the rest of the details, you can do all that in one place.
Looking for Skiing conditions:
2. Snowshoeing
If you want to try snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, head to Hilltop Orchards to rent equipment and explore three and a half miles of trails around the orchards and winery. After working up a sweat, grab a cider doughnut. Hilltop also offers a guided full moon snowshoe tour and a bonfire experience. You can also head to the beautiful campus of The Clark Museum in Williamstown. Ask about Project Snowshoe.
3. Arts and Culture
Even in January, cultural life here thrives, at museums, theaters and music halls. World-class attractions like Mass MoCA, the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, the Colonial Theater, Shakespeare & Company, and Ventfort Hall all await.
