Connecticut River Greenway State Park spans over 12 miles of permanently protected shoreline across five towns (Northfield, Sunderland, Hadley, South Hadley, and Hatfield) with multiple river access points for boating and fishing.

Key access sites include the Pauchaug Brook boat launch in Northfield (paved ramp suitable for canoes and motorboats), a dirt road ramp at School Street in Sunderland (with parking at the public library), and a gravel boat ramp in Hatfield off Kellogg Hill Road (suitable for shallow draft boats and canoes with trailer parking).

The park connects open spaces, parks, scenic vistas, and historic sites along the Connecticut River, offering diverse recreational opportunities year-round.
