As Hunter Mountain strides ahead toward the status of a true four-season resort, we continue to offer more and more activities and fun things to do in the "greener" seasons.
There's something for everyone at Hunter Mountain. Outdoor enthusiasts can take advantage of the natural wonders that abound in the Northern Catskills. Miles and miles of state-maintained hiking trails criss-cross the area, offering terrain for short scenic hikes to extended backtrip excursions. In fact, one of the trails known as the Devi's Path is rated as the most difficult day hike in the country.

The beauty of the Catskills is legendary. This rugged countryside is criss-crossed with miles and miles of trails, ranging from the well maintained network in and around North-South Lake to the rugged trails accessing the high peaks. These are the trails.... the difficult, steep climbs to the weathered summits... that make hiking the Catskills so popular. Views like this are numerous, and for the most part, easily accessible.
