Overview

The Smith Property fits neatly into a collection of conserved land near Bee Hill and the Flora Glen. To the west of Smith lies the Town of Williamstown’s large Hunter property — which is familiar to many through its Hunter Family Loop and Sara Tenney Trails — and beyond that lies the Taconic Trail State Park.

The south section of the parcel features mature woodlands, and the upper section offers views over Williamstown to the Hopper and the Greylock Range. There is also a distinct view of Williams College at the end of the Smith Trail, accessible from the Sara Tenney Trail (RRR Brooks trailhead on Bee Hill Road).

Size: 14.22 acres

Longest Walk: 1 mile (round trip)

Acquired: 2015

History

This parcel was, at one point, possibly a part of the Yeadon Dairy Farm and used for grazing. A section of the original Bee Hill Road crosses this land.
