Heading out |
I was hoping to paddle, but one of Papa Joe’s hikes fit
better into my schedule, so I hooked up with Bill for the Mount Pisgah
hike.
Mount Pisgah is an 83-acre conservation area in the towns of Berlin
and Northborough. The property includes four pieces of conservation land. The
two central properties are managed by the Conservation Commissions in Berlin
and Northborough. To the south is a Mass Dept. of Fish & Game property, and
to the north is privately owned land (formerly the Devine farm) under a
conservation easement.

Checking the map |
We entered at the (31) Smith Road parking lot in Northborough (although
there is also a parking lot on Linden Street in Berlin) for a 5.5-mile loop. The loop
took us south to the South Terrace Overlook, then north over Mount Pisgah to
the North Terrace Overlook before returning. While there are no views from the
summit of Mount Pisgah itself, there are great easterly views from two
overlooks at the North and South Terraces along the ridge.
Another good hike, and we were home by noon. I do like the early morning start.
