Catskills Swimming Hole Adventure

CATSKILLS SWIMMING HOLE A Secret Spot in the Mountains
Some places don't need much of an introduction. A cold mountain swimming hole on a summer day is one of them.
We're heading deep into the Catskills for a full day of hiking, swimming, and doing absolutely nothing in the best possible way. After a short guided hike through lush forest trails, we'll arrive at one of the most beautiful and secluded swimming holes in the region, surrounded by nature, far from the noise, and exactly what a summer day should feel like. Swim out to the middle, dry off on the rocks, eat your sandwich in the sun. There's no agenda beyond that.
Come with your crew, come solo, come however you need to. You'll leave feeling like a different person.

Always free with registration. Always good vibes. Always community first.
Each week is hosted by OUTSIDERS founder Jeremy Asgari and the OUTSIDERS team, bringing the same energy you know and love from our adventures to this new weekly series.
Join us every Tuesday and find your MOVE.
