The Berkshires, Massachusetts for Pre-Teens & Teens

4 day trip

Day 1

    • Amusement Park
    • Water Park
    Six Flags New England

    Agawam, MA

    Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's a car full of riders screaming their lungs out as they speed down a 221-foot drop at 77 miles per hour! ...

    • Greek
    • Italian
    • Pizza
    • Take-Out
    Baba Louie's

    Great Barrington, MA

    You'll know this fabled crispy-crust, wood fired pizza place by the crowds of people spilling on to the sidewalk trying to get in....

    • Hotel / Motel
    Red Lion Inn

    Stockbridge, MA

    Stay here for the lovely rooms and the vintage feel. The old stagecoach stop breathes history, from the lovely tea parlor to the old cage elevator (kids can actually ride it—just ask) to the grandfather clock that chimes on the hour. ...

Day 2

    • Art Museum
    • Special Collection
    Crab Apple Whitewater Rafting

    Charlemont, MA

    Oh-so-fun adventure trips down the Deerfield River operate rain or shine. As the guide says gleefully, "You're going to get soaked anyway." Getting wet is half the fun—that, and (according to teens) watching mom and dad hang on for dear life....

    • Boutique
    Seven Arts

    Stockbridge, MA

    The smallish façade of this one-of-a-kind store is deceptive: inside are rooms and rooms that stretch to the back and up the stairs, all full of trinkets, collectibles, and bygone toys and merchandise that will thrill every age in your group. ...

Day 3

    • Resort
    • Bicycling
    • Hiking
    • Skiing
    Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort

    Lanesboro, MA

    Jiminy's newfangled spring/summer Mountain Coaster raises the bar on the alpine slide genre, laying elevated tracks down the length of a ski slope and sending rider-steered cars careening down drops, around corners, and through its top-speed course....

    • Boating
    • Fishing
    • Rafting
    • Swimming
    • Boat Ride
    • Boat Tour
    Wild 'N Wet Water & Sports Rentals

    Lanesboro, MA

    Who needs ocean surf when you've got crystal clear lake water to play in? Families love Lake Pontoosuc, a bustling place where pleasure boating is via motor, paddle, or foot....

    • Take-Out
    • American
    • Burgers
    • Family Dining
    Dakota Steak House

    Pittsfield, MA

    Ask for a family friendly place and locals will lead you here. The busy, log-cabin style eatery appeals to kids, with its hunting-lodge décor, extensive children's menu, overflowing plates, and a fabled Mud Pie for dessert. ...

    • Historical Landmark
    • Aquarium
    • Theater
    Berkshire Museum

    Pittsfield, MA

    Kids love the "magic" entryway (doors open outward by themselves) and just about everything else at this landmark science-meets-history-meets-art kids' museum. Surprises are everywhere....
