The natural beauty and resources abound with over ¼ million acres of forever-wild woodlands, the highest peak in the Catskills, Slide Mountain, the best rock climbing mountains in the Northeast, and of course, the Hudson River. In Ulster County, you can experience the longest elevated pedestrian bridge in the world, tour over twenty wineries, four distilleries and cideries, and shop at the highest density of farmers’ markets in the country.
