A look down on Holyoke, across the Connecticut River, South Hadley on the beginning rise, with the hills on the Eastern side of the Pioneer Valley behind it.Nestled around the Connecticut River valley in Western Massachusetts is an area known as the Pioneer Valley. Home to the Five College Consortium , the area’s local music, performance, and visual art scenes are quite rich. Plus, a good cup of coffee or independant bookstore are never far away.
Surrounded by the Holyoke and Mount Tom Ranges, the Pioneer Valley is ideal for hiking and biking; between the mountains you’ll find farms and several quaint towns and small cities. Each small town in the Valley is walkable, but you’ll have to get there first—and while many are less than a 15 minute drive from each other, most are connected by highways and long country roads. Amtrak trains and Peter Pan busses will bring you to the larger towns, and the area’s public bus system is convenient enough for car-less college students and those with short work commutes. But the best way to get around the Pioneer Valley when visiting is to drive yourself.
