Tips from locals
A long (approx 8 mile) loop that takes you through a wide range of scenery and some of our favorite views in Minnewaska. Worth packing a picnic and taking the day to explore this trail
Gertrude’s Nose Trail travels through dense wooded areas to beautiful views while trekking along various cliff edges and rock formations, starting from Millbrook Mountain all the way to Patterson's Pellet with the main highlight being Gertrude's Nose. It is recommended that visitors get there earlier as this is a very popular trail. Make sure to bring lots of water and get ready for some rock scrambling! This route has the potential to get wet and muddy, with lots of little creek crossings so wear appropriate footwear.

Heavily Trafficked 7.8 mile loop. Best from April until Oct. Dogs allowed on leash.
A very special, slightly intense hike that requires some scrambling up rocks. Not for those looking for an easy stroll. The view is the payoff!
