Down Route 63 Along the Connecticut River

Northfield is the only town in Massachusetts that sits on both sides of the Connecticut River, and its Main Street runs through a genuine village center — the two-story stone Dickinson Memorial Library, with its 14 stained-glass windows, is a good landmark to orient by. Route 63, part of the Connecticut River Scenic Byway, is your way out: follow it south past the Northfield Mountain Recreation Center toward the French King Bridge, then pick up Route 2 East toward Athol. It's about 25 miles and 30 minutes. Unlike the larger cities to the east, Northfield has no adult-use dispensary of its own, so Hometown Harvest in Athol is one of the closer legal options. The trip is short enough to fold into a run to the Northfield Drive-In — one of only four remaining drive-in theaters in Massachusetts — or a hike at Northfield Mountain, and there's free parking waiting at our door on Main Street.
