Area
Huntington is the gateway to the Berkshires, the point at which
the flat of the Pioneer Valley gives way to the Massachusetts
range of the Appalachian Mountains. A mix of thin valleys and
hills that reach heights of up to 1400 feet, Huntington is nestled
within a rare natural formation that is the result of glacial
movements thousands of years ago.
Stop in and explore Gardner State Park or get an up-close and personal view of the Knightville and Littleville dams. Whatever you do, you’re sure to leave Huntington with lasting memories of spectacular scenery and a kind community.
