The Catskill Mountains offer miles of hiking trails maintained by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. Hike out along the Escarpment trail for scenic views of the Catskill high peaks, or head over to North Lake and look out across the Hudson Valley. Just be sure to say hello to Rip Van Winkle along the way.

After a day of hot action out on the course, even if you’re just watching, cooling off is a necessity. Move with the currents along the Esopus River as you soak in the mountains, or slide down the flumes for a guaranteed splash ending!
