Hiking Moreau - State Park

It was so good to be out on the hiking trail today. This is our first hike this summer; normally we would have been out many times but it has been so rainy.

Today we went to Moreau State Park, about fifteen minutes south of our home and right on the Hudson River. This is a great park for swimming, boating, fishing, camping and hiking. Over the years we have been there many times to canoe and fish, but have only hiked there once and that was just around the lake. Most downstaters go there for camping and in the summer it is difficult to get reservations.

One of the beautiful advantage, among many, living in upstate NY is all the outdoor activities we can enjoy and most are well within a hour or so from our home.

Anyway it was a great hike and look forward to many more in the coming months.

Not sure what the look is all about!

View overlooking the lake although we couldn't see the lake clearly because of so much growth.

Don't you like the name of this trail!

My hiking partner; she led the way

It was nice to have these trail markers since we had not been on these trails before and our map wasn't the best.
