caption_attribution_description: English: Hockanum Beach on the Connecticut River in Hadley, Massachusetts, with Mount Tom across the river
context_page_description: Mount Nonotuck, 827 feet, is the northernmost peak of the Mount Tom Range of traprock mountains located in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts and part of the larger Metacomet Ridge which stretches from Long Island Sound to nearly the Vermont border. Rugged and considered scenic, the peak rises steeply from the river valley 700 feet below. It is located within the town of Holyoke.
  The 110-mile Metacomet-Monadnock Trail, maintained by the Berkshire Chapter of the Appalachian Mountain Club, crosses Mt. Nonotuck, and a seasonal auto road climbs to a small parking lot just beneath the summit. During the winter, the auto road is often used for cross country skiing.
