Massachusetts’ Highest Point Is A Secret Spot With Unbelievably Panoramic Fall Foliage Views

If you’re looking for a secluded spot with amazing fall foliage, Mount Greylock is it. Located in the quaint town of Adams, Massachusetts (named after patriarch Samuel Adams), the 3,491-foot-tall mountain is considered the highest peak in the state. Situated within the Taconic Mountains, the secret summit is surrounded by a lush, taiga-boreal forest. With an array of colors, Mount Greylock may be the perfect getaway for fall leaf-lovers, especially among the golden brilliance of beech and striped maples.

On the clearest day, you can see an unbelievable panorama of the idyllic Berkshires and Green Mountains, including the adjacent New England states.
