The twistiest stretch of Massachusetts 2 across the Berkshires from North Adams toward Greenfield, climbing the hairpin out of North Adams and running down the Deerfield valley.

SeasonMay to October; autumn colour is the busiest

A historic road across the Berkshires with a hairpin turn above North Adams, followed by long valley runs with river views.

It is a main route with trucks and tourist traffic, particularly in autumn, so plan your overtaking and enjoy the corners where the road is clear.

There are towns and fuel along it, so you are never far from either.
