Crossing the French King Bridge on the Way East

The drive from Turners Falls is a genuinely scenic one. Heading east on Route 2, you leave the power-canal village behind and follow the Connecticut River up to the French King Bridge — the 1932 cantilever-arch span that was named the "Most Beautiful Steel Bridge" of its year, high above the gorge where the river meets the Millers. Look north from the deck and, when the water's low, you can spot French King Rock. From there Route 2 threads through Erving and into Athol, roughly 22 miles all told. It's a short trip with a real sense of leaving one river valley for the North Quabbin, and it ends where parking is free and the pace at the counter is unhurried — a contrast to the busier dispensaries closer to Greenfield.
