Lenox Mountain
About
Lenox Mountain is a summit in western Massachusetts, rising to 2,124 feet about 2.5 miles from the town of Lenox. It sits close to the town, making it an easy objective for anyone already in the Lenox area. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Pittsfield show July highs around 79°F with lows near 58°F, and the summit sits higher than that station, so expect cooler temperatures up top. The Yokun Ridge Trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and the Kpmb5 and Portugese mountain biking routes are each about a mile off. For time on the water, Onota Lake is roughly 5.6 miles away.
