Located a 1/2 mile off the shoreline in Lake Champlain, the 945 acre Valcour Island is home to 26 designated campsites along the shoreline and several hiking trails. Parts of the island are quite rocky, with certain points more then 90 feet above the lake.

Harding Road Trail

The Harding Road Trail is an old carriageway built to the former Kaaterskill Mountain House, long abandoned but still largely remaining 25-foot wide road cut into the side of South Mountain, running 2 miles from Palenville to the old carriageway looping around South Mountain.  Additional parking is available along Whites Road.
