Currently viewing the tag: "Rock Climbing"
New Paltz is the jumping off point for one of the best rock climbing areas in North America – the Shawangunk Mountains, affectionately referred to as the Gunks. The climbing is great for all levels. If you’re a beginner, you can easily hire a guide to lead you up the rock-face, while experienced climbers lead their own climbs up the granite cliffs. The mountains are great for hikes, too. For bikers, there are 15 miles of bike trails running along an old rail path near the Wallkill River. And there’s plenty of great food in the quaint (kinda hippie-dippy) town.
