  If you're using public transportation, take the Peter Pan Bus from locations such as Boston or New York City to Great Barrington. From the bus station, you can use a taxi service or rideshare (e.g., Uber or Lyft) to get to Bash Bish Falls State Park. The distance from the bus station to the park is about 10 miles, and it may cost around $20-$30 for a rideshare, depending on demand and time of day.
