Very popular hike and waterfalls. Get there early to get parking. Parking along the road is illegal and you will get a fine. only 1.5 miles to the falls, it can be extended into loop. Best visited in a spring when there is a lot of water, or fall for views and colors.

about 1.5h drive from the house near Woodstock. Very easy hike to beautiful vista of Hudson Valley. Lots of snakes along the trail in the summer (more like carriage road than a trail) so keep dogs on leash. About 6 miles rt. there is also turn for Echo Lake (camping area) that is very beautiful, but trail leading to the lake is rather dense and I saw few bears on it.

Beautiful hike that passes by popular Diamond Notch falls depending which parking area you choose. Popular so parking area fills up quickly on weekends. around 6.4miles from Spruceton rd, great views right before the summit from the ledge. As most hikes in the Catskills, starts off steep

One of my favorite hikes with beautiful views at the top. It can be combined with Cornell Mt for 8.5 loop or done individually.Steep at the top, but worth it. Few trailheads to start from, the one in Woodland Valley would be the shortest one.
