Kaaterskill Falls OCT0426

Join us for an unforgettable hike to Kaaterskill Falls, one of the tallest waterfalls in New York! This moderate trail leads to a stunning two-tier cascade dropping 260 feet, with scenic viewpoints and a dramatic natural setting along the way. We’ll climb stone steps, visit a viewing platform, and explore both the upper and lower falls while enjoying fresh air and great company. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced hiker, this adventure offers breathtaking views and a perfect way to connect with nature. Let’s explore together!

Pack your favorite sandwich and drink, we will have a snack break on the trail.
