Access, closures, permits & safety

Access

For Mohonk Preserve sectors, enter via an official trailhead and follow marked trails; use the yellow-blazed climber approach trails in the Trapps. Other Gunks sectors may have different landowners and entry rules.

Parking

Mohonk Preserve recommends its Visitor Center or West Trapps long-term lots. Trailhead lots can fill early on peak weekends; follow posted parking rules.

Permits & access rules

Mohonk Preserve requires a membership or day-use pass. Peregrine nesting may cause temporary sector restrictions; confirm current Preserve alerts before climbing.

Safety

Climb at your own risk, use appropriate protection and stay on official access trails to protect sensitive habitats.

Closures and permit rules can change without notice. Recheck the official land manager before departure.
