Bear Mountain, located in the Hudson Highlands of southeastern New York, is one of the most notable landmarks on the Appalachian Trail in the state. The AT crosses directly over the summit, which stands at 1,305 feet, which is not especially high, but it is a historically and symbolically significant summit; it’s home to the oldest continuously maintained section of the Appalachian Trail, built in 1923, and features wide stone steps and paved walkways constructed by trail crews and the Civilian Conservation Corps. For many hikers, Bear Mountain is also the site of the lowest elevation point on the AT, near the Hudson River just before the climb. From the top, you get sweeping views of the Hudson Valley, and the surrounding Bear Mountain State Park includes a lake, picnic areas, the Trailside Museum and Zoo (which the AT technically passes through), and access to nearby Perkins Memorial Tower. It’s a popular day hike, so don’t be surprised to share the trail with weekend crowds, especially in fall.

Bear Mountain peaks at just under 1,300 feet in elevation over a 4.5-mile stretch of picturesque paved road. Although it may seem small in comparison to some of the world’s renowned climbs, it makes up for this with stunning views of the Hudson Highlands.

Lake Tiorati (Algonquin for sky-like) is one of the seven main lakes in Harriman State Park. Swimming, boating, camping, hiking, and ice-fishing are all popular activities on the lake.

A beautiful lake for a relaxing break. The lake is great for swimming, fishing, or simply enjoying nature. There are nearby picnic areas.

Easily one of the most fulfilling summits in Harriman Park.

The mountain is only a couple of miles away from Pine Swamp mine, which you can get to using connecting trails. The mine itself is off the trail, though. Here is the highlight: https://www.komoot.com/highlight/4488751

There's no parking fee to park at the lake. Boating and fishing are both allowed *with permit*, but gas-powered boats are prohibited. More info here: https://dec.ny.gov/places/lake-skannatati
