Two of the steepest ascents in the Catskills rise to a stunning 2¼-mile-long ridge with epic views on either end.
Plateau Hiking Trails & Hikes
Hike Plateau via Daley Ridge
This is one of the most outstanding and exceptionally well-designed trails in the Catskills. It offers multiple scenic viewpoints, some of which are the best in the Park. The rocky terrain and rolling woods on Daley Ridge are epic the whole way up.
Hike Plateau from Mink Hollow
The parking area at the north end of the Mink Hollow trail is marked on the NYNJTC maps in gray, which signifies “roadside parking”. In fact, it’s a dead end/cul-de-sac that look like it functions as a snow plow turnaround. There’s ample space for cars but be thoughtful about your parking during snow months.
