The Great Outdoors
Step outside and let nature set the pace.
Branches has 32 acres of woods, fields, and riverfront, offering space to wander, move, and unwind. Cool off with a swim in the Esopus Creek, cast a line for fly fishing, or explore miles of on-property trails that loop through forest and along the water. Branches is located in the heart of Catskill Mountain Park and has dozens of trails nearby, including Giant Ledge, Slide Mountain, Panther Mountain, and Phoenicia's Tanbark Trail.
Open fields invite morning walks, trail runs, yoga in the grass, birdwatching, or simply stretching out under a big Catskills sky. Whether you’re here for adventure or stillness, the outdoors is always just steps away.
