Southern Access to Schunemunk Closed for Season

Body


The southern entrance, on Seven Springs Road, to Schunemunk Mountain State Park in Orange County is temporarily closed while the county parks department constructs an athletic field at the Gonzaga park site. The county expects to open the park later this year. Southbound hikers on the co-aligned Jessup and Highlands Trail need to keep this closure in mind. Hikers in the closed area report that police cautioned them against trespassing and cited the possibility of ticketing.
