Forever Wild Guides, a service of Storehouse, will be offering a family-friendly hike up to Slide Mountain Slide Mountain- the tallest mountain in the Catskills! But don’t let that scare you…the hike is not that difficult! Led by our guide, Jess, her two young stepdaughters, and friendly pup, Muppet.

This moderate hike is 5 miles round trip. There is climbing involved and some rugged terrain, but children aged 6+ should have no problem completing this hike. The environment will be fun and supportive and nobody will be left behind, so join us!
