Neversink River Unique Area










Needing to get out after a lazy week, I thought the Neversink River Unique Area would be a nice spot on a rainy day.  Located just off Route 17 in Sullivan County about 7 miles west of 209, Neversink is a bit off the beaten path.  But it's a little gem of a place.

I parked at the end of Katrina Falls Road.  Unfortunately I could not find the map I printed out from the NYNJ Trail Conference.  This was a shame since I only made it to Denton Falls which I suspect are the least impressive of the three waterfalls located here.  That's Ok though.  Early fall colors and a nice walk splashing through puddles was a nice break from the indoors.  I took a couple nice side trails to the river.  It looks like a fly fisherman's river.

  1. Never thought much about Neversink. I know from looking at maps that it'sa reservoir. Didn't realize there is an actual area to walk around in. Nice!
