    Anyone know of the above within 2 hours from Brooklyn? That has both a camping site and a beautiful strenuous scenic route?

    Check out the Tannersville area.

    Are you looking for family friendly? If so, Kaaterskill Falls was great, but I don’t know if they have a campsite.

    If you are willing to go a little further

    Try Mt Marcy in the Adirondacks, Highest Mountain in NY. Its near Lake Placid

    Maskim with writersoul. Dont go to the “country” as the Jews would call it. Go to the “other side of the mountains” to the Hunter/Tannersville area.

    If you need a camp site, in the area is North South Lake (its a state park) and you can rent tent space for a couple dollars a nighy. There you’ll have access to TONS of hiking trials of dofferent levels as well as a lake with boat rentals. Kaaterskill falls are gorgeous and a few minutes away from the site but its an easy half hour hike and but worth the breathtaking ??? ???? ???????. Happens to be the tallest waterfall in NY (including Niagra) its just not as powerful.

    Another great trip within 15 minutes is Hunter Mountain (great ski resort) which has their lift open on weekends in the summer so you can go up and freak out drom the double black diamonds people (i.e. me) ski on. There are trials at the top of the mountain too.

    Tannerville also has a small Kosher Store called Kosher Mountain on main street Route 23A and 4 shuls open during the week!! (Yet we still maintain a bon bungalow colony feel!)

    You should really make the trip its really worth it!
