South Hadley Falls is just across the Connecticut from Chicopee, a drive up look at the river pouring past the dam, and Turners Falls makes a similar stop farther north. The real walking waits west in the hilltowns. Chapel Falls in Ashfield runs 1.2 miles with 200 feet of gain, and Umpachene Falls rewards a tenth of a mile with a swimming hole. Thirty two falls land inside the radius, and dogs are fine at nearly all of the hiking ones.

Located at 42.1764°N, -72.5719°W
