This can be considered a difficult hike but I will venture to say it is not. There is constant sustained elevation gain that does knock the wind out of you, but its up an old roadway so the terrain is easy. This goes on for a bit over two miles with nothing to see. Stop and rest and have some water and it will be "easy", there are no rock scrambles or rough passages, just a very long very steep uphill walk. It is SO WORTH IT. Once you get close to the top you will come upon the ruins of an old hotel that are pretty rad, there are many walls and stairs still standing. I have spoiled my children. We do long hikes with great payoffs. This by far was their favorite. It has set the bar where they expect great ruins and incredible vistas on each hike. It is the standard of all good hikes for them (I like some physical challenges like a good scramble- but they sustained elevation gain on this one does give me my physical challenge I look for). After spending some time at the ruins, the top is just a short hike. The views are incredible, the fire tower is an added perk and the historic house an informative little rest. There is also an outhouse at the top. The first time we went there was a volunteer with Oreos at the top to congratulate you for making it! Even on a cloudy day it is worth it. We saw families with babies, elderly people and pregnant women at the top. If you take your time and slowly walk, it is doable for most anyone

Sunfrost Farms is BRILLIANT! One side is a produce and gourmet farm stand where you can get everything from locally grown fruit and vegetables, flowers, herbs and mushrooms to specialty gourmet items and fresh baked desserts. The other side is an eatery and juice bar that serves GREAT FRESH FOOD! Mexican specials, all kinds of soups and wraps are all made there and delicious! Service is great! The staff is real small town friendly! And in warm weather, you and your dogs can sit outside under a canopy and have the same great service!

We drove from Niagara Falls to Woodstock, which took 6 hours approx. The last section which took about 90 mins, was a drive through the Catskills and along the Delaware river, which is a really scenic drive. Woodstock town is a really laid back neck of the woods. Really nice shops to take a wander through. We went in to 2 great bars The Station and The Colony which is also a good music venue. There are loads of good restaurants and got the best bagels I ever had in Bread Alone.The people we met were really nice and friendly. There is a good music venue called Levon Helm Studios which is situated in a beautiful wooded area. We stayed in a very quaint boarding house at 5 Rock City Road which we booked on Airbnb. If we planned our road trip all over again we would have stayed an extra couple of nights. The bottom line from us is Woodstock is well worth a visit.
