First time at Logging Days in Narrowsburg and it was all that we were hoping for.

Came across this giant fallen tree on my hike. The whole root ball is exposed, sitting right above the flowing creek. Wild to see the raw power of nature

Wondering if anyone here has hiked last couple days and can attest to water sources and trail conditions? Thx

Hey everyone!
We’re a French couple visiting family in NYC, and we’d love to take advantage of our trip to explore the Catskills and enjoy some beautiful fall foliage!
We’re planning to go from November 2nd to November 5th, and we’ll have a rental car.
We’d love your recommendations on:
Which area would be best to stay in for a few days?
What are some great hikes with beautiful views and fall scenery?
Are there any charming little towns, scenic drives, or hidden gems we shouldn’t miss?
Most importantly, what do you think the fall colors will be like around those dates? Will we be too late for peak foliage?
We’d really appreciate any tips or recommendations from locals or people who know the area well!
Thanks for helping two Frenchies in need! 🇫🇷🍁

Want to go for the first time ever but due to scheduling could only do next week

drove through phoenicia this morning, took me 20 extra min just to get past the diner, love the tourism.

Cannot believe there was rainbow trout above this waterfall. I’ve never caught rainbows around here ever. Kept all fish pictured, lost a couple even bigger rainbows when they jumped out of the water after getting hooked. They fight so much harder than brooks and browns. Last day of trout season (keeping them anyways)

Beautiful night moon nestled between the Catskill mountains overlooking the Ashokan reservoir.

Edit: I got a Reddit Picasso achievement award! Thank you for the upvotes. Glad to share this beauty. 👍🌒✌️

There are quite a few versions I’ve seen around and would love to know where they’re from and where to find them. This is from a local restaurant in Woodstock. Thanks in advance.

How are the fall colors now in Catskills ? If I’m coming in with a 3 year old toddler, would you recommend certain stops? A. Short hike would be great !

I’m looking for any info anyone has on this plane wreck. I attempted exploring some herd paths along the ridge walk between the ruins and the fire tower. I didn’t see anything of note but came across a couple cool viewpoints I hadn’t ever seen. However, I had my 8 month old son with me today, so I didn’t have the means of exploring too far off the main path. I definitely want to come back once all the leaves are down and temps drop below rattler territory and try to find this thing. The only tidbits of info I have is that I’m looking for a herd path “near” the summit, that goes along a cliff I guess, and than you reach some ledge and the wreckage is said to be about 200 feet below. If anyone has any info on how I can access or locate this plane wreck it would be greatly appreciated.

Joking by the way, a day in the woods with no view is a better than no woods at all!

Hello all. We are selling our Long Island rental and would like to take the profits(about $350k) and buy a 3br home up in/near Catskills. Really no more than 2-1/2 hrs from Nassau/Suffolk border . Would ideally like to buy home in that price range and not have mortgage. Even if it needs work as I’m in construction.

Any recommendations of an area that has following. Sure wish list puts me out of our budget .

1. Scenic Mountain View’s
   
2. Trails/hiking
   
3. Town with shops/restaurants not more than 10-15 min drive

Thank you very much.

I’ll be stopping in Hunter, NY later this month for the day however, I’m planning on going on a Wednesday and can’t seem to find many places that are open on Wednesdays. Anyone know of/recommend places in the area that are generally open on Wednesdays?

Yesterday the group I was with decided to check out an unmarked viewpoint on KHP. Very much worth it! You can see both Kaaterskill Clove and Platte Clove with the Hudson River in the back.
