Diversions in the Pioneer Valley.

The western Massachusetts area provides any number of possibilities for diversion and recreation. You can hike the Berkshires in the morning and listen to world class music at the Iron Horse Café in Northampton that evening, or classical music at Tanglewood, the western Mass summer home for the Boston symphony orchestra. You can ride beautiful single track trails in Savoy Mountain State forest and then check out the museums in Springfield, Northampton, Williamstown and of course the world famous and original Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (Mass Moca) in North Adams.
