Morning Light on the Cliff: Hike the Beacon Hill and Lake Minnewaska Loop at Minnewaska
Sunday, December 29, 2024 09:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Join Laura Conner, Environmental Educator, for
an approximately three-mile loop hike on the Beacon Hill Carriage Road, Beacon
Hill Footpath, and Lake Minnewaska Carriage Road. Starting at the Lake
Minnewaska Visitor Center, we'll walk to the Beacon Hill Carriage Road, a quiet
route through the woods with a gorgeous view at the end. Next, we'll hike along
the cliff-edge Beacon Hill Footpath, which features stunning views of the
Wallkill Valley. Once we finish the hike, we'll walk along the Lake Minnewaska
Carriage Road, heading around the south and then the west side of the Lake. The
footpath section of this hike includes some hills as well as areas of bare rock
and exposed tree roots that maybe slippery. Participants should bring water and
snacks and wear appropriate hiking shoes. Meet at the Lake Minnewaska Visitor
Center. Pre-registration is required by
calling the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752.
