The Catskills
Leaf Peeping
The Catskills region experiences a peak of color in mid-October!
HIKE - Crystal Lake
This is one of our favorite hikes nearby - it is very easy, I'd consider it more of a "nature walk." You can do this with children.

This is a moderate hike about 30 minutes from Callicoon.
HIKE - Mongaup Mountain Loop
A difficult 12-mile hike ~45 minutes away.
BREWERY - Callicoon Brewing Company
The local Callicoon brewery, great beer and an easy walk to the center of town!
BREWERY - Catskill Brewery
An awesome brewery in the town of Livingston Manor. Very cool brewery in an old farm with outdoor space with games. Great to bring the kids to!
DISTILLERY - Catskill Provisions
An amazing whiskey distillery that specialized in honey whiskey from local bees!
VINEYARD - Bashakill Vineyards
A beautiful vineyard with amazing views for some fall leaf peeking.
