Confirmed from Stony Ledge's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Hiking area with a family-friendly campground including a lean-to shelter.
What runners say about Stony Ledge
“Easy hike up the roadway, sometimes steep but very beautiful and doable up from the farm.”

Easy hike up the roadway, sometimes steep but very beautiful and doable up from the farm. We enjoyed this portion of the hike more than the Greylock summit since it was so much quieter. Such a lovely place to be.
Beautiful views! Only accessible by hiking about 45 minutes on a gravel path, assuming you park on the mountain (only an option from June through Nov 1)
Stony Ledge trail. Nicer and less populated trail to a summit. On the the top there’s a very relaxing view to Greylock Mountain, with a nice spot to sit and eat.
Great hiking area with clean brooks, nature and fresh air. Some of the hiking is steep and strenuous.
