Halcottsville

Halcottsville is one of many hamlets that populate the area that encompasses the Catskill Mountains, and it lies across the East Branch Delaware River, just north of the mountains. It is a place which many people visit on camping trips when they are looking to stay close to the mountains, but when they are also hoping to experience the tranquility that the natural world offers. In fact, light walks up the river are enough to settle even the busiest of minds, and the nearby Plattekill Mountain is a hub for winter sports when ski season rolls around. Here, you can challenge yourself on the mountain slopes. Halcott Mountain marks the true start of the catskills, and it is known for offering stunning, orange-tinted views in the fall time as you hike through the wilderness.
