Hancock

The Taconic Mountains define the setting of Hancock — wooded slopes and elevated terrain shape the appearance and seasonal rhythm of this small Berkshire County town. Incorporated in 1776 and named for Massachusetts statesman John Hancock, it lies on the western edge of the Commonwealth near the New York state line. Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort, on Hancock’s eastern side, is a longstanding Berkshire destination for skiing and summer mountain activities. Beyond the resort, the town’s back roads, forests and scattered homes reflect the quieter side of the Berkshires.
