Tuesday Trek: Morning Light on the Cliff: Hike the Beacon Hill and Lake Minnewaska Loop at Minnewaska
Tuesday, December 31, 2024 09:30 AM - 12:00 PM
End the year on a joyous note by joining 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. Then, 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 and some
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.
