Where We Work

Our work takes place across the rugged and scenic terrain of Catskill Park, a protected area of over 700,000 acres that’s home to some of the most iconic trails and peaks in New York.

Training

No experience is necessary, and beginners are encouraged to join us! We provide on-site training during each. Our experienced crew leaders and members are eager to teach people of all abilities the skills needed to build and rehabilitate trails. Volunteers will learn how to properly maintain drainage systems and keep trails clear of vegetation on remote and rugged trails.

Looking to learn a specific skill? Check out our workshop schedule for specialized courses being offered near you.
