Awesome trails, well maintained, gnarly rock gardens that keep you on your toes. Make sure you get your legs under you first before giving this a go. Lots of climbs with amazing downhill rewards

We’ve been upstate for 7 years now and have never been to this park. This morning we checked the weather, took out TrailsApp and looked for a trail near Port Jervis and found this one. The area has a bunch of different bike trails that you can walk. While there is service mostly everywhere I still recommend that you download the map. On every intersection we had to take the app out to see which way to go and still made a few wrong turns 🀣 The trail kept jumping from red to blue so it’s easy to choose the wrong path. It’s very loopy but it’s designed for bikers and gives you those extra miles. You’ll see deer and hear birds and see a lot of chipmunks. Once you get towards the port Jervis side it gets noisy! There are beautiful views of the town and Delaware. Overall, this is a great spot. Plenty of different trails, bikers and walkers can enjoy. The place is huge and we only saw a few people on the trail intersections.

Is there hunting allowed in the area?

No hunting allowed here. If you spot a hunter here, please report them, as this high-traffic area would be extremely dangerous for that activity. To contact a NY Environmental Conservation Police Officer or report suspected violations, call the DEC Law Enforcement Dispatch Center atΒ 1-844-DEC-ECOsΒ (1-844-332-3267) or use the online reporting system to report an environmental problem.
