Best Hiking Area New York: reviews

Avalon is a lovely escape into nature. Trails are very well kept and labeled. I always come here to just relax and unwind on a trail.

Fascinating display of his home and interests (books and big game hunting), with knowledgeable, dedicated staff giving visitors lots of insights. One...

A wonderful waterfall with history to it. Visited in April and the water was very cold. I am sure one will be spellbound if you visit in late Summer...

For the price we paid for a scenic trip to the top of Gore Mountain. I'm not sure more entertainment for the buck, is possible.

This is my favorite leisurely day hike with the best views at the top. The view is over a valley with mountains in the background and fields, homes...

Absolutely incredible gem, tucked away with only a small sign to mark the road. Short hike, but with a few extra hiking trails if you want to get more...

Cascade mountain is definitely difficult, so I recommend making sure you are prepared for this! Lots of steep rocks to climb up. We got up in less...

Beautiful hiking. Well marked trailed. Parking was a bit tight but manageable. The place is big so no crowds on trails, which is nice. We loved it.

Nice 30 min hike up the hill, if you park just before the entrance. Otherwise pay $10 and drive all the way to the top. Great views

Beautiful relaxing and perfect place, fair price and you will leave renewed

Always a pleasure. Bear Hill! Thank you Cragsmoor Association! Sincerely. "ZIGGY"!

Always a good hike especially when a release of water is done and the kayakers are taking advantage of it.

Just the right distance to take the dog around the loop. Well maintained, level, dry path, changing scenery with lots of info along the way. I wish...

Very well looked after trail that is relatively easy to walk with beautiful fall scenery.

1/3 of the trail is quite steep, but great view at the top and beautiful mossy forest on the way are rewarding.

It was a peaceful and nature experience weekend. The campsite was big, it had water access and electric plugs, many trees to cover from the rain, pool...

Great hike, took us a little longer than expected. Great view from the top and love that you can climb the old fire tower.

Moderate trail, awesome views from the tower. A little wet. Could use a few more markers.

Stairs upon stairs upon stairs! Well maintained and cared for and the view was worth it all. Parking lot at the base of the trail was an added bonus.

The real deal. Love the place and spend hours here. Now every tine I collect some garbage others left. Please keep the place clean.
