Afternoon Hiking Respite

Make the Walkway over the Hudson an immediate easy walking destination with its connecting rail trail system deep into Ulster and Dutchess counties; consider kayaking, canoeing, or floating on the region’s many kills and creeks; climb the Gunks’ world-class rock walls of the West Trappes at Mohonk Preserve; understand the beauty and geology of the Hudson Valley on a river boat tour; plan a cross-country, snow-shoe, or downhill adventure in the Catskill Mountains on a snowy winter weekend; organize a vigorous hike in the mountain ridges on either side of the Hudson Highlands; pedal your way through rolling hills, meandering valleys, verdant woodlands with stop-overs in village cafes and local farm stands to savor regional wares; and then ponder your next adventure for the return visit to the Hudson Vallley en plein air. Request further information from the innkeepers at reservation or upon arrival.
