Other Names | Bonny Rigg Campground, Massachusetts |
Last Known Status | Closed For Season |
Bonny Rigg Campground offers spacious RV and tent sites and a couple miles of rocky ATV trails that form a short loop through a mixed hardwood forest. Quads are permitted on the park roads but must observe the 5mph speed limit.
The trails here can be covered in a short time but if you are looking for longer loops check out nearby October Mountain, Beartown and Pittsfield. There is no direct trail access from this campground to the other state forests so machines must be hauled to and from the staging areas.
This campground is open year-round and offers hot showers, a swimming pool, fishing streams, a kids playground, hiking trails, basketball court and horsehoe pits. Potluck dinners, hayrides and special events are hosted throughout the year.
Visitors should note that motorcyles and UTVs are not permitted.
