• Explore the Mohonk Barn Museum, built in 1888, which exhibits an array of antiques -- horse-drawn carriages, kitchen and farm tools, and even a 1929 Model A Ford Station Wagon -- once used at the Mohonk. Also learn about classic blacksmithing and carpentry techniques with onsite demonstrations.

• Stroll through the location's Victorian Show Garden Gardens, designed by founder Albert Smiley in 1888. A master garderer conducts guests through the garden, which showcases a new theme each year and utilizes some 300 species of plants and flowers in the presentation.

• Hike to and climb the 100 steps to the observation deck on Sky Top Tower for a breathtaking 360-degree view of Mohonk Mountain House, Lake Mohonk, the Catskill Mountains, and the surrounding valleys. Three routes, ranging from easy to challenging, afford visitors multiple options to reach the tower.
