Hike For The Catskills 2023

Hike for the Catskills is an opportunity to explore the natural beauty of the Catskills while helping to protect critical Catskills habitats, keep our land and waters wild (even at the most popular hiking destinations), and advocate for our communities and the Catskill Park. 

My name is Alexa. I'm a photographer and former park ranger based in the Catskills. I'm excited to combine my passion for the outdoors with the critical mission of safeguarding the beauty of the Catskills. I've seen the impacts of increased tourism firsthand here at home and the Catskills and across the country throughout the national park system. 

Access to nature is a human right. Through expanded education and conservation practices, it's totally possible to keep the Catskills wild for the next generation of adventurers. 

By donating here, you're supporting the work of the Catskills Center (and one very eager hiker.)
