Minnewaska State Park Preserve: Sam's Point Area
Join Zoë Foery,
Student Conservation Association/AmeriCorps Stewardship Assistant, for a hike
to Verkeerderkill Falls. Falling 187 feet over a dramatic, rocky ledge,
Verkeerderkill Falls is the highest waterfall in the Shawangunk Mountains.
We'll walk through the dwarf pitch pines and enjoy views of the Hudson Valley
below. While this five-and-a-half-mile hike does not have significant elevation
gain, it does include some steep, rocky terrain and a stream crossing. Please
bring a lunch, water, and appropriate clothing for the weather, including
sturdy footwear, traction devices and warm clothing. Children must be
accompanied by a parent or guardian over the age of 18. Meet at the Sam's Point
Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required by calling Sam's Point at
845-647-7989.
