Overlook Mountain via Overlook Spur Trail in Overlook Mountain Wild Forest
The Overlook Mountain hike in New York’s Catskill region is a rewarding journey blending natural beauty with historic intrigue. Hikers ascend through a steady, forested path leading to the eerie ruins of the Overlook Mountain House, an abandoned hotel whose concrete remains invite exploration and reflection. At the summit, the iconic fire tower offers sweeping views, including the Hudson Valley, Ashokan Reservoir, and distant ranges, making this a beloved destination for both scenic vistas and the fascinating history it preserves. #Hike #Mountain #Forest #Nature
