Snowshoe Hike to Indian Rock at Sam’s Point
Saturday, January 25, 2025 11:30 AM - 02:30 PM
Join Becca Howe-Parisio, Environmental Educator, for an interpretive snowshoe hike to Indian Rock. We'll hike past the scenic vista at the Sam's Point Overlook and then make our way around Lake Maratanza. At Indian Rock, we'll enjoy beautiful views of the Catskill Mountains. During this almost five-mile hike, we'll traverse roads and a rocky footpath through a dwarf pitch pine forest and a cranberry bog featuring a bog bridge. Most of the terrain is fairly level with some short, steep sections. Snowshoes are available to rent for $5 at the Visitor Center. Please bring a lunch, water, and appropriate clothing for the weather. Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian over the age of 18. If there is insufficient snow cover, this program will be offered as a hike and participants are encouraged to bring micro spikes or other ice traction devices. Meet at the Sam's Point Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required by calling Sam's Point at 845-647-7989.
