Operated by Massachusetts Audubon, the Pleasant Valley Wildlife Sanctuary is a very pleasant place to spend a few hours walking, hiking and wildlife watching. Pleasant Valley covers more than 1000 acres of forests, wetlands and meadows and has over seven miles of hiking trails including a challenging hike which takes you to the summit of Lennox Mountain. You can often observe beaver activity from the observation platform at Pike’s Pond and if you visit in summer you can join a canoe excursion on the Housatonic River. Pleasant Valley hosts Summer Camp for younger outdoor enthusiasts to encourage wildlife observation and active outdoor activities.
