trips - Got the skills to hike the Catskills?Trip Info
Description- The Wittenberg/Cornell/Slide/Giant Ledge loop: Including Giant Ledge, this is about a 17 mile loop from the Woodland Valley CG, so no car shuttling needed. Fabulous views and some fun rock scrambling (moreso than the Devil's Path). The road walk (about 3/4mi) sux, but this is my (Pennsy's) favorite loop in the Catskills. We're going to start early on Saturday, and hike 13 miles (approx) to Giant Ledge. There is a spring nearby, some nice campsites, and the views are great. That would leave a 4 mile hike for Sunday, giving you time to stop at Sweet Sue's in Phoenicia for a fantastic but expensive breakfast. If we are able to, we can leave the packs in camp Sunday Morning and hike over to Panther Mountain and then back, grab the packs and head back to the cars.
