Why choose a trail at Panther Mountain Trail?

The Panther Mountain Trail is a moderate-level hike that offers stunning views of the Hudson Valley. The trailhead is located just south of the hamlet of Tannersville in the Catskill Mountains, and it's a popular spot for day hikers and mountain bikers.

The hike begins with a steady climb up a dirt path, which is flanked by wildflowers and tall trees. After about a mile, the trail levels out and opens up to reveal beautiful views of the valley below. The hike continues on a gradual incline, with occasional steep sections, until you reach the summit of Panther Mountain.

From the summit, hikers can enjoy 360-degree views of the surrounding countryside. On a clear day, you can see as far as the Hudson River and the skyline of New York City. The return trip follows the same path back to the trailhead.

The Panther Mountain Trail is a great hike for anyone looking for a challenging workout with rewarding views.
