Fans of the great American folktale of Washington Irving’s Rip Van Winkle may recall its setting in pre-revolutionary New York, in the vast forests of the Catskills. Any traveler, especially those escaping bustling Manhattan two to three hours south, can take a few pointers from the Rip. His passions included wandering through the lush mountains and verdant valleys of the Catskill Mountains, where he found solace amongst the trees and intrigue in the rivers and streams. There’s certainly something to say, here, about the wilderness, and the enchantment that comes from the endlessly green and mountainous Catskills region, even if it's peace doesn't cause you to sleep through the entire American Revolution.
