Hike Wine in the Shawangunks

Outdoor Connections // Hike & Wine Tasting in the Shawangunks // Day hike upstate NY

The twin jewels of Minnewaska State Park and Mohonk Preserve are situated on the spectacular Shawangunk Mountain ridge that climb more than 2,000 feet above sea level.

Two of the most unique and beautiful parks in the New York State park system, they boast numerous crystalline “sky” lakes, abundant waterfalls, and too many cliff edged views than we can count.  Miles of both easy going carriageways and rugged foot paths eagerly await for us to explore. 

The scenic overlooks afford unparalleled views of the white colored cliffs and valley below. We’ll experience the added bonus of vivid fall foliage which should be in full swing.  Some of the areas of interest we may visit include the 60 ft plunge of Awosting Falls, Lake Minnewaska with it’s high cliff walls, the stunning views from Millbrook Mountain and Gertrude’s, and the gentle carriageways of Castle Point.  We will round out our day by rewarding ourselves with stops along the celebrated Wine Trail outside of New Paltz and sample some fine wines from the local vineyards.
