WE WILL FOLLOW COVID GUIDELINES DURING THIS EVENT

By far one of the best views of the Hudson Valley you will ever see and a trip back in time to the abandoned Overlook Mountain House Hotel (1824-1923) in historic Woodstock, NY.

This hike is a workout but worth it for the views.

Following the hike we will stop of in downtown Woodstock for food, drinks and to check out the hippies! (indoor dining is still and option upstate)

How it works:

• Register and we will send you very specific info on where to meet and what to bring.
• You may take Metro North, Amtrak or drive to meet the group at the Poughkeepsie Train station at 10:40am.
• Your guide will pick you up in Poughkeepsie and bring you to all the activities.
• You will be back on the 6:50pm train at the latest.

Itinerary:

• 10:40am pick up at Poughkeepsie Train Station
• Pick up lunch at local Deli if you did not bring your own.
• Travel to Woodstock and Overlook Mountain
• Hike for about 90 minutes before stopping at the top for lunch.
• After hike we will stop for hot chocolate and snack at a local bakery.
• Depart for train.  5:50pm or 6:50pm at the latest depending on how the group manages the hike and time in town.

How hard is the hike?:  This hike is an old carriage path straight up the mountain. It is at a constant incline that will keep your heart pumping for 90 minutes up and 90 minutes down.  It is a level 7 only for the incline otherwise the terrain is easy to navigate.    You won’t need to go to the gym the next day!
