Amherst Town-Northampton, MA

Running in the Amherst-Northampton area stays mostly flat through the Pioneer Valley, with popular routes along the Connecticut River and through local parks like Mount Holyoke Range State Park just south. For cyclists, the region is a hub for longer rides into central Massachusetts hills—the King's Tour of the Quabbin covers 162.5km through reservoir roads and climbs, while the Hatfield Lions Annual Bike Tour and BIKES FIGHT CANCER Charity Ride offer 80–90km options through farmland and rolling terrain. The local trail racing scene includes the FBRTC 5K Trail Race held in the area's mixed-woodland sections.
