Orange County, N.Y. – Don’t allow the winter climate to encourage you to sit indoors! If you’re searching for a low-impact, highly enjoyable way to appreciate the snowy, crisp outdoors, snowshoeing is an excellent choice. Furthermore, Orange County, N.Y., provides perfect environments for safe excursions across our stunning landscapes.
Consider visiting Winding Hills Park, spanning 502 acres in Montgomery and Crawford, focused around the 40-acre Diamond Lake, for a day among the trees. Alternatively, snowshoe the 19.5-mile Heritage Trail, which connects the downtown areas from Middletown to Harriman. During the winter, the trail is not cleared, making it perfect for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing as the snow accumulates. Access points with convenient parking are available in Harriman, Monroe, Chester, and Goshen.
Snowshoeing serves as an aerobic activity that enhances cardiovascular health and builds muscle strength. It helps combat the winter blues by keeping you engaged and enjoying the fresh air during colder temperatures. Plus, it’s enjoyable. This helps clarify why a record-breaking 4.5 million winter sports enthusiasts donned snowshoes last year, as reported by Statista. This represented a substantial increase from 3.84 million in 2022. Participate in a fun, healthy pastime – and explore Orange County, N.Y., along with its numerous winter attractions!
