Boating & Canoeing

Center Lake, over 100 acres in size, is at the heart of the Greylock campus. Boys use the lake for every type of water-related activity. Among our more popular lake pastimes is our boating and canoeing program. Boys can kayak, paddleboard, and go on row boats in a naturally protected cove, away from swimmers and motor boats.

Canoeing takes place throughout the lake and there are frequent trips to nearby rivers for more advanced campers. Memories of white water canoe trips in the Berkshires are at the center of many alumni’s remembrances of their summers at Greylock.
