TRAIL DETAILS:
Trails not to be missed: Gold Mine and Run Noot The Elm Ridge Trails are nestled in the state-owned, protected, and forever wild lands of the Catskill Preserve Wild Forest. The trail system is well-marked and easy for all to navigate; while built specially for mountain bikers, all are welcome. The miles and miles of scenic trails offer something for everyone.
The Huckleberry Trail follows the old Huckleberry Railroad that ran from the Catskill Mountain House west through Stamford. This 2.7-mile stretch starts on Clum Hill Road, across from Cortina Valley, and ends on Bloomer Road. This mostly shaded trail is ideally suited for bicycles or foot traffic. It meanders through the wilderness, over wooden bridges, and across only one main road (South Main Street).
