These routes range from challenging mountain treks to easy afternoon strolls. Hiking opportunities abound for people of any interest or ability. Hiking trails are maintained on many areas of Forest Preserve land in the Adirondack and Catskill Parks as well as on State Forests, Wildlife Management Areas and Unique Areas. Most trails are marked with color coded disks affixed to trees (see sample on this page). Trail guides and maps correspond to these markers. Trail register boxes are generally located near major access points and parking areas. Although most state-maintained trails are marked, hikers are encouraged to consult topographical maps or other guides when planning to venture into the backcountry.
