In case you haven't noticed recently, it is HOT in Massachusetts right now. Sure, it could be hotter. But, up until this point during this Summer, we have just experienced our hottest week of the season. Of course, with the warmer temperatures, there is plenty of exploring one might set out to do throughout the Bay State during the Summer. And maybe one of those spots you will find yourself exploring is the tallest waterfall throughout all of Massachusetts.

Sometimes you learn some awesome facts about the state you live in. Like, where you can find the tallest waterfall in the entire state of Massachusetts.

The travel publication 'Nothing Familiar' posted about this spot and they couldn't stop ranting and raving about how breathtaking the tallest waterfall in the Massachusetts is. They also posted some fun and not-so-fun facts about the waterfall and its location. But most importantly they said this:

The waterfall is roughly 80 feet high, which of course, makes it the tallest in the Bay State. The springs of Mt. Washington would be where all that water is coming from. However, 'Nothing Familiar' also points out that there have been 25 deaths from cliff jumpers making the leap into the shallow waters, so please be safe upon your visit there.

Bash Bish Falls are about 25 minutes southwest of Great Barrington, right next to the New York border. Given that parking on the Massachusetts side of Bash Bish Falls State Park, you will likely want to park on the New York side of the park so you can hike up to that point.

The falls have also received plenty of love on Twitter as well...

In the meantime, while you're dealing with the warmer Summer temperatures in Massachusetts, it makes for a perfect time to visit the awesome scenery at Bash Bish Falls State Park. It's just one more beautiful thing to check out while you're in the Berkshires.
