Finding the perfect vacation can pose a dilemma for couples or friends with differing interests. If one person itches to get out on hiking trails and the other prefers a dose of fine arts, perhaps the perfect compromise can be found in the Berkshires. Lovely in every season, the summer and fall are arguably the prime time to visit this pastoral swath of Western Massachusetts. On a recent visit, I toured four cultural venues that offer something for the art lover, in galleries, and the nature lover, on extensive hiking trails through the verdant rolling hills. Some trails even offer art to see along the way — a win-win for those of us who appreciate both activities.
