Favorite Catskills Hikes

An idea stolen from the favorite ADK Hikes.

The two my daughter and I keep switching between every Columbus day weekend are:

Giant Ledge from the hairpin turn and Overlook Mt. just outside of the real Woodstock.

Both are short and relatively easy 1/2 day hikes. The ledge is breathtaking, especially if you hit the Woodland Valley leaves right. The old hotel foundations on Overlook are extremely interesting and the old Fire Tower is a real treat. On a clear day you can see the Hudson River from the Rip Van Winkle bridge all the way to the Kingston Rhinecliff bridge.
