Clarksburg State Park, State park in Berkshire County, US
Clarksburg State Park covers 368 acres of northern hardwood forest in Massachusetts, with views toward the Hoosac Range, Mount Greylock, and the Green Mountains beyond. The landscape is defined by thick woods and Mauserts Pond, which sits at the heart of the park.
The park was established by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation to protect the natural landscape and provide outdoor recreation for residents. This effort preserved the forest and waters for future generations to enjoy.
Mauserts Pond brings together visitors who come to fish, swim, and paddle non-motorized boats throughout the year. The water draws people seeking outdoor activities and connection with nature.
The park has 46 camping sites available from May through September, with office staff present during weekday hours from 8 AM to 6 PM and weekend hours from 8 AM to midnight. Visitors should plan accordingly, as facilities and services shift with the seasons.
The park has 9.5 miles of trails, including the 3-mile Pond Loop Trail that doubles as a cross-country skiing route when snow covers the ground. Winter brings a completely different character to the same paths.
