Pecoy Notch Trail is a 3.6 mile moderately trafficked out and back trail rated Moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, nature trips, and bird watching and is best used from May until September. The trail starts off with yellow blazes, and then about a 1/3 of a mile in, you take a left on the blue trail. After another half mile or so, you will come across the old Dibble's Quarry, which provided stone for NYC sidewalks until the 1800s. Over the years, people have piled up old bluestone slabs to make walls, pillars, and chairs. This is a nice place to relax and explore. There is also a nice view from this spot. There are several stream crossings, so spikes are a must in winter and and take care during high water. As you get closer to the notch, you will pass a wetland called a fen, which is caused by runoff from the mountains. Once you reach the red-blazed Devil's Path, you can continue on to Twin or Sugarloaf, but that is a difficult trail and is only recommended for experience hikers.

Part of the Pecoy Notch Trail. Game of Thrones vibe right here in NY! Trail is well maintained and rated fairly easy. The thrones are in the perfect location overlooking the mountain range and valley. Definitely a hidden gem!
What a gem. Accessible even with a few inches of snow.
