Short hikes, swimming spots
(And ask me if you are looking for longer and more strenuous hikes).
Sheep Hill
Pond, frogs, picnic area.
Hopkins Memorial Forest
Northwest Hill RoadA popular hike along an "eight-shaped" loop. Fairly flat
Short walk to the meadow from Mason St (good for kids), and longer walks through the woods too. My favorite!
Mountain Meadow Preserve

West Shaft Roadswimming! Warmer water. Can get a bit crowded on weekends
Linear Park
swimming in a deep river spot, right in Williamstown. Water is cold but delicious
We love this place -- for swimming, paddle-boarding, just relaxing. It's quieter than Windsor Lake but water is a little colder.

Great short hikes just behind the Clark. Well marked, and you can stop for a drink or for art at the Lunder Center. I love hiking here!

Great hike up to Stoney Ledge, particularly in the fall. The parking lot is off Hopper Rd. (which is in turn off Green River Rd/Route 43).
