Winter Mossy Glen Hike at Minnewaska
Saturday, January 25, 2025 10:00 AM - 01:00 PM
Feeling cooped up and need to get out? Then join Nick Martin, Park Educator, for an invigorating hike in the wintry woods. On this approximately three-mile snowshoe outing, we'll hike along Mossy Glen Footpath, Blueberry Run Footpath, and Upper Awosting Carriage Road. Along the way, we may encounter animal tracks, icicles, or other winter wonders to look at. Although this route ascends 200 feet, the climb is gradual over the length of the footpath. This route may present some challenges, such as slippery rocks, ice, uneven and rocky footing, and exposed tree roots. A limited number of snowshoes are available for participants to borrow for this program from the Education Department. When these run out, snowshoes may be rented for $5 per person. Please plan to arrive by 9:30 a.m. if you will be borrowing snowshoes. If there is insufficient snow cover, this program will be offered as a hike and participants are strongly encouraged to bring microspikes or other ice traction devices. Meet in the Lower Parking Area. Pre-registration is required by calling the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752.
