northfield mountain recreation and environmental center

Do you like to hike? Do you like to picnic. Do you like to canoe? How about cross country skiing? If you are looking for something different, give Northfield Mountain a try. Take a tour and learn the history of Northfield Mountain, the dam, the water pumps and all. Makes for a nice day trip.

took the river cruise today to see the fall colors. want to return to explore the trails. i'm impressed with what they have to offer. looks like it will be a good place to return for cross country skiing.

The staff is incredible, and they get kids out into nature & noticing things they would not be aware of. Great facility, and terrific teachers.

One of my best days out cross country skiing was here. Though the parking lot was full, we barely saw a soul. The sky was clear blue, the trails were silky smooth, and the sun was warm on our backs.
