Located in Greene County New York in the Catskill Mountains, Hunter Mountain is the second tallest mountain peak in the Catskills at 4,040ft. Although heavily associated with the Hunter Mountain Ski Resort located on the northern side of the mountain and well below the summit, the trails, summit, and terrain offer a spectacular journey through the natural forest of the Hunter-West Kill Wilderness.
