Join us for one of the most fun and unique trails in the Hudson Valley, the legendary Lemon Squeeze at Mohonk. This is part hike, part rock scramble, as we climb through the Labyrinth, a natural maze of towering boulders, tight crevices, and wooden ladders, before squeezing through the famous Lemon Squeeze and emerging at Sky Top for jaw-dropping panoramic views of the Shawangunk Ridge and the valley below, all lit up in peak fall color. It's a hands-on, full-body adventure that rewards every scramble with unforgettable scenery. After we come back down to earth, we'll head into charming New Paltz to refuel with food and drinks before heading back to the city. PLEASE NOTE: This is an advanced hike.
