The Town of Huntington is referred to locally as the gateway to the
Berkshires. Bounded by Northampton to the east and Westfield to the south,
Huntington is a desirable bedroom community. The town's rural character
and its natural resources are a source of pride to all of its almost 2000
residents.
Huntington has a varied, in some cases spectacular, topography. The town
contains a series of narrow valleys through which several streams and
rivers flow. In contrast, there are hills which reach over 1400 feet in
altitude. The Knightville and Littleville dams provide scenic impoundments
amounting to some 2400 acres of federally owned open space while
approximately 70 acres is contained in Gardner State Park. Huntington
offers swimming, fishing, hiking and picnicking within its borders.
In the early spring, the oldest continuously run whitewater race in the
United States is held. The 40th Annual Westfield River Whitewater Canoe
Race was held in 1993, which also marked the first time the Whitewater Open
Canoe Downriver National competition was held in Massachusetts. The
Westfield River Canoe Club has applied to host the nationals again.
Residents feel that the controlled release of water from the Knightville
Dam and the many accessible viewing areas, which made Huntington a good
location for the race, also demonstrated to visitors from across the
nation, the unique and precious resources which characterize the town.
Western Massachusetts, bordered by Blandford on the southwest, Chester and
Worthington on the west, Chesterfield on the north, Westhampton and Southampton
on the east, and Montgomery and Russell on the south. Huntington is 25 miles
northwest of Springfield; 35 miles east of Pittsfield; 110 miles west of Boston;
75 miles from Albany, New York; and 145 miles from New York City.
