Season's Bleatings!
Did you know that everything is better with goats?
Designed specifically for people who love being outdoors, the winter holidays and animals! Come hike with us and our herd of rescued goats through the beauty of the forest, tucked into a remote part of the Catskills, just 2 hrs from Manhattan.
Your guide can tell you the rescue story of each goat for those interested, share their quirks/personalities and answer any questions you might have (with a few terrible goat jokes/puns thrown in for good measure.)
Our barn/ sanctuary is teeming with lights, snowflakes and non-denominational decor to get you in the holiday spirit.
Our goats love to walk our trails, so they magically follow and walk with us through the woods as we become part of their herd. No leashes needed!
We will meander through the forest over beautiful streams, enjoying the wildlife and scenery while we enjoy a sunset over a seven mile water view of the Rondout Reservoir.
We end with a roaring bonfire, with complimentary hot chocolate, warm apple cider, and marshmallows to roast. You are welcome to bring your adult beverages as well :)
Everyone gets to pick or make a holiday ornament to commemorate the adventure.
If you are looking for a unique outdoor experience that combines your love of animals, nature, & winter holidays - this is for you!
