The Gold Street Trail near Belchertown and Amherst Massachusetts is an easy 1.9 mile out-and-back hike through woods owned by UMass. Near the end of this GPS section of the trail is a building owned by Umass - you can turn around here for 1.9 miles total or continue on for another couple of miles.

The trail continues on for another 2 miles or so and hooks up to the radio tower on the Mount Lincoln Trail.

This property is owned by UMass but they allow hikers to walk the trails. Dogs and biking are allowed here, but do not park directly in front of the service gates - you will get towed.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller / Admin. As the main contributor and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my experiences from hikes and backpacking trips on MyHikes for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, and site maintainance . I simply ask that if you find our content helpful or useful when planning your next adventure that you consider making a small donation to help keep the site running.

You can become a Supporter* (*MyHikes user account required) to unlock perks for as little as $0.83/month with a 1-time non-recurring payment 👍 Or you can simply Donate any amount without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing to a donation - both quick and free 😄

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike! ✌
