Perhaps the most famous river in Charlemont, Deerfield River is the location for many tourists and locals looking to get some water activities going. This river is 76 miles long from Vermont through Massachusetts. Because of the dams in the surrounding area, this is a slower moving river that has perfect spots for swimming and fishing. Many visitors enjoy tubbing on the river, and whitewater kayaking in rougher areas. A visit to Charlemont would not be complete without spending a little time at Deerfield River, enjoying a picnic or the wildlife.
