It flows north, west, and northwest, past the Massachusetts towns of Adams, North Adams, and Williamstown, and then across the southwest corner of Vermont, before entering New York. It flows past Hoosick Falls, New York, where it provides hydroelectric power and joins the Hudson 14 mi (23 km) above the city of Troy, New York.
Its tributaries include the Walloomsac River.
