Mt. Williams (on the left) Mt. Prospect (on the right) dominate the view from Route 2 near the Harriman-and-West Airport in North Adams, MA.
Located within the Mount Greylock State Reservation, approaches to this peak begin at a variety of trailheads within the Reservation. Parking is available at most trailheads. The Appalachian Trail traverses the summit of Mount Williams where there is a wide vista overlooking Williamstown and North Adams, MA as well as Pine Cobble Mountain to the north.
