From Exit 2, West Stockbridge, on the Massachusetts Turnpike take Route 41 south through Egremont into Mount Washington. Follow signs to the parking lot at top of falls. To reach the easier, but longer trail to the base of the falls, continue past the upper parking lot into New York state and the parking lot and entrance in New York's Taconic State Park. Another 14 primitive camp sites are available in Massachusetts' Mount Washington State Forest a few miles from the falls. The park is open from dawn to dusk throughout the year.
