About Connecticut River Greenway State Park

The Connecticut River corridor forms the backbone of this park, which is made up of separate parcels of state land scattered along the river's course through the Pioneer Valley rather than one continuous tract. It protects open spaces, scenic vistas, and archaeological and historic sites, along with habitat for wildlife and plants, while also providing public access points to the water. These holdings connect with neighboring farmland, conservation land trust properties, and wildlife refuges, linking the park into a broader network of protected land across western Massachusetts.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
