Food scene
Mountain Brauhaus
A German Restaurant known for their beers on tap. The food is good but be prepared to pay close to city prices. Also be prepared for the waitstaff to be dressed in traditional German garb. It's a super popular place for climbers -- it has great beer and is close to the "gunks" climbing area.

A beautiful setting where you can go to hear live music, eat wood fired pizza (only on weekends) and enjoy home crafted beer. They also have a selection of wines. In the fall you can pick organically grown apples and in the summer months you can pick berries. Great for kids too but not annoying for those without kids.

Sightseeing
Mohonk Preserve
3197 Route 44 55Beautiful place to walk, bike, and hike.
Great for biking, hiking and swimming. There's a great trail that brings you to a lake called Lake Awosting. It's a beautiful lake with a stone slab bottom so no mushy lake bottom. There's a closer lake to the parking area that's more of a family beach area. It's postage size but the water is beautiful. There are a lot of options for beautiful hikes- short or long.
