Review & FAQ:

Located in Delaware County, the Catskill Scenic Trail is a prime area for running, hiking, horseback riding, and biking. The Delaware River winds through the forests, hills and farms that line the 26-mile-long trail.

Once known as the Ulster & Delaware Railroad, the Catskill Scenic Trail (CST) was converted into a recreational trail in the 1990s with help from several generous organizations. The “rails to trails” project has been successful as thousands of people utilize the CST each year. In the winter, visitors enjoy snowshoeing and cross-country skiing on the path's flat surface.
