Anyone know of a good place to park for 4 days in Cheshire Mass., besides the trailhead parking.
Planning 3 - 4 day hike in Aug. Thanks

parking is available at the closed AT hostel at St. Marys Catholic Church in Cheshire. Ask permission first. A convenience store is.2 mile south on MA 8. Groceries, lodging, restaurants, a post office and other services are also available in Cheshire. An outfitter is located along the road to Adams - several miles north of the AT. Bus service is also available.
This may help, map from St marys to highway 8 in Cheshire .6 mile (https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Saint+Mary+of+the+Assumption+Parish,+159+Church+St ,+Cheshire,+MA+01225/42.5677607,-73.1591785/@42.5649564,-73.1622938,16z/am=t/data=!3m1!4b1!4m9!4m8!1m5!1m1!1s0x89e0b4933f71f131 :0x35e5317cf2fbb418!2m2!1d-73.159875!2d42.562453!1m0!3e2)

I spoke with staff and I'm all set for parking next week. They still allow tenting but no indoor sleeping. Water,charging for phones and toilets are available.
