New Historic Hike for North-South lake Region
Posted: Tue Jun 08, 2010 10:52 pm
After many hikes, and lots of research we have added a new Historic Hike to the North-South Lake Region.
Escarpment Trail - Historic Hike - Approximately 6.39 miles round trip - 3 hours. Easy. This hike will encounter Kaaterskill Falls, Laurel House, Kaaterskill Hotel site, Boulder Rock, Catskill Mountain House, and the Saw Mill. Numerous other landmarks. Boulder Rock and the old Catskill Mountain House provide outstanding views of the Hudson Valley. You can make side trips to North-South Lake for bathrooms, picnicing, fishing, etc.
If you like history and hiking, this hike is packed with about as much history as we can get into one reasonable hike. You can see the hike here: http://www.catskillmountaineer.com/hiki ... nt-HH.html
We will also be including a new section for the old Saw Mill / Kaaterskill Hotel Laundry in the near future.
