Parks & Nature

Venture up what was once the recreation area and ski area for Bethlehem. Stunning views at the top. From Main St turn right on Rte 142. APPROX 1 MILE, AT TOP OF HILL, ON LEFT, IS AN OLD BARN. Park there and walk up the road--past the little house (it looks like you are on private property and you are but they gave an easement). Short hike but steep. Worth it.
