About Canoe Meadows Wildlife Sanctuary
Located just one mile from the center of Pittsfield, Canoe Meadows brings wilderness to Berkshire County’s largest city, attracting warblers, turtles, ospreys, otters, and the occasional bear at different times of the year. Gentle, flat trails wind through the sanctuary’s scenic woods, fields, and wetlands, and along the edge of the Housatonic River.

Acres 253

Trail Mileage 3 miles (universally accessible: 0.3 miles, depending on conditions)

Sanctuary Highlights
 * Several ponds, one with a wildlife viewing structure at the end of a boardwalk.
 * Spectacular views from various points on the trail.
 * Home to a Community Garden, accessible to local green thumbs who want to organically grow vegetables and flowers for a small fee.
 * Programs regularly offered through Pleasant Valley Wildlife Sanctuary.
