Are you interested in seeing the beautiful fall foliage of New England but tired of traffic jams and
overbooked hotels? Then this year forget the crowds in New England and see the beautiful colors of
autumn in the Catskills.
These rugged mountains in New York State, just 90 miles northwest of New York City, are famous
for the legendary tales of Rip Van Winkle, and more recently for the summer hotels that sprang up in
the region during the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Families trying to escape the heat of New York City
found the Catskills to be the perfect place to stay for a month or so each summer. By the late 1950s there
were over 500 resorts and hotels offering nighttime entertainment as well as all kinds of outdoor activities.
Famous comedians like Jackie Gleason, Joan Rivers, and Sid Caesar all got their start touring the hotel
clubs here. Since the introduction of air-conditioning and cheaper air travel, however, families have
stopped coming to the Catskills in such large numbers, choosing instead more distant locations at
different times of the year. Many of the Catskill hotels closed in the 1970s, but some remain and have
expanded and changed their facilities to meet the needs of today's visitors.
Currently, there are many activities available to the traveler besides witnessing the changing
colors of the leaves. There is an all-organic sheep farm where visitors can see how a traditional sheep
farm operates. There are also hundreds of miles of scenic drives in the area. Route 42, for instance, is an
excellent site for spotting bald eagles. For more information on vacations in the Catskills, call the Office
