Echo Rock Hike at Minnewaska

Saturday, August 2, 2025 09:30 AM - 12:30 PM

Join Nick Martin, Park Educator, for an approximately four-mile hike along a few historic carriage roads to reach a prominent, scenic vista. From the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center, we'll start by heading around the west side of Lake Minnewaska to reach an intersection with the old golf course. We'll wander up a hill through the old golf course until we reach the intersection with Castle Point Carriage Road. From here, we'll continue on this carriage road until we intersect a connector trail to Hamilton Point Carriage Road. Once on Hamilton Point Carriage Road, we'll follow this trail until we reach Echo Rock, a cliff-side, scenic vista. From here, we'll head back towards Lake Minnewaska and walk around the west side of the Lake, back to our starting point. Meet at the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required by calling the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752.
