- Melissa ZayasMarch 19, 2019I love going here to go rappelling and rock climbing. The views are incredible! I also enjoy the views on the hiking trails. The nature center always has something interesting to learn when visiting.
Charles GuerreroSeptember 6, 2015Beautiful place to hike right near New Paltz. It's private lands, so you either have to be a member, or pay a day use fee at the visitors center.- Andrew G.August 19, 2015Lots of trails for hiking, great views of the mountains, and some great rock climbing too.
For rock climbing, if you visit more than 5 days in a year, the annual pass is the better deal.
Randall L.June 27, 2011Visit the website as there are four different areas for entry to the preserve. The main visitor's center is at the address above. Annual permit required to use preserve.
