January 23, 2021January 18, 2021hike was a little harder than I expected. Pretty solid workout. great views 3/4 way up and at the top. Very steep the last bit. can be slippery with mud or leaves. Very cool hike
January 10, 2021Beautiful views
January 2, 2021Nice quick trip up Sugarloaf Hill...would’ve been an easier trip but the trail was quite muddy in spots. 3/4 of the way up there is a beautiful view north to West Point...Storm King and Breakneck Ridge. End of the trail has a view South to the Bear Mountain bridge and surrounding areas.
December 8, 2020November 29, 2020November 20, 2020November 16, 2020Nice short hike, some good views across the Hudson to West Point and a good vista at the end down to the Bear Mountain Bridge. The varied scenery kept it interesting.
November 9, 2020Lovely hike up to Sugarloaf hill. fairly gradual climb until the last bit when it goes straight uphill, which is strenuous for about 10-15 mins. the view may actually be better right before you head east into the woods away from the edge of the mountain than it is at the actual summit, but either way all the views are great. took over an hour (maybe hour and a half?) to get up at a slow pace, with stops.
November 7, 2020November 6, 2020Great leisurely trail, a bit of a steep part at the end. Nice view from the top.
October 31, 2020Nice hike. Alittle slippery with the leaves. Steeper towards the top but reasonable. Nice views
October 27, 2020Nice little hike with great views
October 25, 2020October 18, 2020October 17, 2020we loved the views on this trail. great views over the hudson, west point, and bear bridge. steep climb at the end for the last .3 miles - everything else was pretty easy. we took a few wrong turns sue to poor trail marking at key spots, so I would just make sure you sync up with the map along the way. otherwise we had a blast!
October 9, 2020Lovely hike. Quite steep in spots. Make sure to go all the way to the end for a great lookout.
October 5, 2020September 27, 2020September 21, 2020September 10, 2020beautiful, clearly marked trail. super steep toward the summit but we'll worth it!
September 8, 2020Pretty trail that goes through a field, forest and a rocky summit with cacti! Easy to follow the path. Lots of overgrowth though so tuck your pants into your socks or wear bug spray. Make sure you go all the way to the end of the trail. Managed fine with a toddler in a backpack and a 70 year old (in decent hiking shape). The steep part is more of an smooth incline than rocks, so can be slippery heading down.
September 6, 2020Some steep elevation but not unreasonable! not a lot of traffic, so you get some nice private views.
September 5, 2020This was a bit strenuous for me. There is one part that is really steep! Def recommend walking sticks. Beautiful views at the summit. Clearly marked trail. You can do it!
August 30, 2020NOT an easy hike! Quite steep.
August 30, 2020August 19, 2020Gorgeous and well maintained!
August 17, 2020Nice view from green trail. Lake is very pleasant
July 5, 2020Short hike with some rewarding views of West Point, Bear Mountain Bridge and Castle Rock. The last 1/4 mile up to the ridge along Sugarloaf is a bit steep. Summit of Sugarloaf has an abundance of cactus.
