Tuesday Trek: High Peter’s Kill and Awosting Falls Loop Hike at Minnewaska
Tuesday, February 11, 2025 09:30 AM - 02:30 PM
Come explore the picturesque High Peter's Kill
Footpath with Laura Conner, Environmental Educator, on this approximately four-and-a-half-mile
hike. We'll start by walking downhill on the High Peter's Kill Footpath,
which features a variety of terrain along a cliff edge with numerous, scenic
viewpoints. We'll follow this until we reach the Yellow Connector Footpath,
which hugs the frozen edges of the Peter's Kill stream. We'll hike up the east
spur of the Red Loop Footpath and take a short break at the Peter's Kill
restrooms. For our return trip, we'll walk along the easy-going Awosting Falls
Carriage Road, past the beautiful and iconic Awosting Falls. This hike does
include rocky, narrow and steep sections of trail that may be icy. Some hikers
may find these conditions challenging. Participants should bring enough water
and food for the outing and wear proper hiking shoes equipped with ice traction
devices. Meet in the Lower Parking Area. Pre-registration
is required by calling the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752.
