Great Barrington Is Massachusetts’ Winter Playground, Where You Can Go Snow Tubing, Skiing, Hiking, And More
While many of us become quite indoorsy come wintertime, there are still plenty of people who enjoy all the fun the great snowy outdoors has to offer. After all, there are some sports that can only be done during the winter, right? One fun-filled town becomes quite a winter playground in Massachusetts. So, if you’re looking to maximize your time out in the cold and snow this season, take a trip to Great Barrington.
Set in the Berkshires, the stunning town of Great Barrington is an outdoor lover's dream throughout the year. But it's quite exceptional during the winter months when snow accumulates on the ground.
Best of all, Great Barrington is home to Ski Butternut, a popular family-friendly ski resort.
At Ski Butternut, there is a 1000-foot vertical, 22 trails, numerous chairlifts, two terrain parks, and more. It's the perfect place to spend some time playing in the snow.
And when you need a break from it all, head inside to one of the restaurants where you can fuel up before heading back outside for some more.

If you prefer to go hiking in the snow, Monument Mountain Reservation is a wonderful place to do just that. And at a 1,642-foot elevation, the views from the top are outstanding!
