Upstate New York is a haven for those who love to hike! The Capital Region is rich with trails, nature preserves, waterfalls, and we’re only a short drive to the Adirondacks, Berkshires and Catskill Mountains. Whether you’re a novice hiker or an aspiring ADK 46er, there are many trails for all experience levels. If you’re a beginner looking to connect with the wilderness, check out local preserves and sanctuary groups that offer group outings. If you’re an experience hiker, there are many meetup groups to connect you with other experienced hikers. If you’d like more hiking resources, please email Danielle at [email protected].
