Itinerary
Everything is better with goats. (It's true) Designed for people who love being active, out in nature and love animals! Come hike with the herd of rescued goats on beautiful forest trails in a remote part of the Catskills, under 2 hours from Manhattan. You'll become part of the herd when we start on a 2.5 mile hike on meandering paths and over beautiful streams, enjoying the wildlife and scenery while we forage for some of the goat's favorite treats, like leaves, acorns and pine branches. Watching the goats in a natural habitat and bonding with them is truly magical. The hike takes 1.5 - 2 hrs, depending on group pace and extra time is spent meeting the other herd of smaller breed goats. Visitors will meet and learn about each goat and breed, as well as their rescue stories, behaviors and personalities for those who are interested.
