Hike to the White Cliffs of Millbrook Mountain at Minnewaska
Sunday, September 14, 2025 09:30 AM - 02:00 PM
Join Laura Conner,
Environmental Educator, for this modestly challenging, five-mile, roundtrip
hike along the Millbrook Mountain Footpath and Millbrook Mountain Carriage
Road. Stunning, panoramic views of the Wallkill Valley and the Catskills are
abundant from the top of the white cliffs of Millbrook Mountain. The footpath section of this outing travels through
forests, over a stream and exposed rock slabs, with sustained downhill and
uphill sections. Some participants may find this uneven terrain challenging.
The other half of this loop hike, which is on the meandering Millbrook Mountain
and Lake Minnewaska Carriage Roads, is less strenuous, offering scenic views of
the steep-sided Palmaghatt Ravine below and distant views of New Jersey. Participants should bring
water, snacks and lunch 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.
