October Hike Pratt Rock 2024
When: Sunday, October 20th 11am
Where: Pratt Rock Trailhead
Often referred to as New York’s Mount Rushmore, this larger-than-life monument to one man’s achievements in the name of industry is a must-hike-to-see while you’re in the Great Northern Catskills.
Zadock Pratt was an early settler of Greene County who happened to rise in his career from a tanner, to a banker, then finally to the House of Representatives. When he had reached the pinnacle of his career, he commissioned stone workers to immortalize his life’s achievements on a nearby cliff. The result: a series of carvings in stone depicting the highlights of his life.
Hike the short, 3.1-mile round-trip off of Route 23E just outside of Prattsville to see this one-of-a-kind spectacle. Perfect for beginners, you’ll gain 900+ feet of elevation, and get a spectacular view of the surrounding valley from several points along the trail.
Parking is available at the trailhead. As you begin your ascent, you may notice a few older tombstones. This is where Pratt’s beloved horses and dogs were buried.
Wear sturdy shoes, practice safe hiking, and enjoy discovering more about Pratt’s life.
