Day 1: Zip Lining – Check-in to Your Hotel and Enjoy the Town

Hunter Mountain Resort: About Zip Lining- The New York Zipline Adventure Tour at Hunter Mountain is the highest, fastest, and longest zip line canopy tour in North America! It’s also the second-largest zip line in the world! Designed to challenge and exhilarate, you’ll love this activity and make all your friends want to hear your stories! The Sky Rider Tour soars 600 feet (.183 km) above the ground with crisscrossing twin zip lines! Soar for over 4 miles (over 6 km) through the Catskills, from mountain peak to mountain peak, and back again, reaching speeds of up to 50 miles per hour (80 KPH). The Sky Rider Tour lasts 3 hours. Each participant is attached to the course by a safe and secure harness and receives a safety course prior to zipping away! * for zip lining and hiking- closed-toe sneakers/gym shoes ARE REQUIRED. Also, it’s highly recommended for the zip line that you don’t wear short shorts. You want them to come past where the harness straps sit so the straps are not rubbing on your skin.
Hunter: Situated 2 1/2 hours north of New York City and 1 hour from Albany is Hunter Mountain and Tannersville! The highest peaks of the Catskill Mountains offer outdoor recreation and the chance to reconnect with nature, each other, and yourself! The base elevation is at 1,600 feet (.48 km) and the summit reaches up to 3,200 feet (.97 km). You will love it here! Enjoy the mountain and enjoy walking the quaint town.

Day 2: Hike to the Waterfalls Day

Kaaterskill Falls: Perhaps the crowning jewel of the Northern Catskill Mountains is the highest cascading waterfall in New York State! This waterfall drops in two tiers & over 260 feet! The Kaaterskill Falls has been one of the region’s most popular destinations for centuries. It’s 90 feet higher than Niagara Falls! The Kaaterskill Falls have captivated the hearts, pens, and paintbrushes of poets, painters, filmmakers, and photographers. It has become part of larger, artistic folklore spreading from the Catskills to the rest of the world. The top viewing platform is only a 1/2 mile (.8km) easy hike. From there, you have options of hiking alongside this beauty to add as many miles/difficulty as you want! Seeing the falls from the bottom is breathtaking! All hiking levels are welcome, however, remember the further you walk down, the further you have to hike back. For those wishing to relax a bit more, feel free to enjoy the hotel amenities (pool, spa, hot tub), as well as checking out the local town.
