A rewarding trail with a fire tower at the top for a gorgeous 360 view of the Catskills. In about 3 miles, the elevation increases apx 2,000 feet, so it’s not a breezy walk. However, the trail is pretty well maintained, easy to follow and not technical. Also, the nearby small town of Phoenicia has a few nice restaurants, ice cream shop, etc. Next time, I’ll bring some swimwear and a lawn chair to soak in the nearby river after my morning hike, as I spotted other locals doing.

This was a killer. This was not like the others. Rocky steep just to get back to the car I thought I was going to break my neck to get there. The tower had bees mosquitoes and flies all around. The view was okay really saw the top of the trees. A little rickety going up the tower. The 5 stars on this was how challenging and how good it felt I did it. And once again the wonderful helpful volunteer on the top. I will be back maybe after getting in a little better shape.

Nice Clean and clearly marked trail. If you're headed all the way up to the Temper Mountain Fire Tower be prepared for a 4-6 hour hike round trip!

This is a tough hike for anyone who isn't a regular hiker. Its pretty steep most of the way and never seems to end, but it IS worth it. Closer to the firetower there is a spring to refill water, and a lean-to to rest in if needed.

There is another trail on the other side of the mountain that is less strenuous I have heard. Firetower at the top is WORTH IT. Little to no cell service in this area, so bring a buddy or tell someone if you plan to hike. I wouldn't recommend this trail...
