Craving some fresh air, beautiful scenery, and a little adventure? Leave the noise of the city behind and spend the day hiking the breathtaking Peter’s K*ll Trail or Beacon Hill Trail at Lake Minnewaska. This invigorating escape includes a scenic train ride, a refreshing hike with stunning views of the Catskills, and post-hike visits to a local farm stand for apple picking and hard cider farm.



🚆 Getting There:

Start your journey with the iconic ride up the Hudson River Line on the 7:55 AM Metro-North train from Grand Central to Poughkeepsie.

— or drive and meet the group directly at the Poughkeepsie train station.

Once there, our guide (Dave Cervini) will meet you and transport you to all activities for the day.


🥪 The Day’s Itinerary:
  • Stop to grab lunch at a local deli or bring your own
  • Hike either the Peter’s K*ll Trail or Beacon Hill Trail, enjoying your lunch atop cliffs with stunning views of the Catskills
  • After the hike, unwind with stops at a local farm stand and a hard cider farm
  • You’ll be on the 5:55 PM train back to NYC at the latest
