History

According to the Massachusetts Department of Conservation & Recreation (DCR), the Mount Holyoke Range State Park grew out of "a long-standing desire by the public and the Commonwealth to protect the range," and the state had been acquiring land in the area since 1940. Starting in 1975, the DCR made more focused efforts to acquire land or easements to create the park."[3]

Activities and amenities

Park trails are used for hiking, horseback riding, and cross-country skiing. Trails include sections of the long-distance Metacomet-Monadnock and Robert Frost trails. A visitors center is located near "The Notch" on Route 116 in Amherst. Picnicking and restricted hunting are also offered.[4]
