About Taconic Mountains Ramble State Park

Donated by the Carson Davidson Revocable Trust Fund, this 204-acre property in Hubbardton was made into a state park honoring Carson Davidson. Visitors find a natural, undeveloped landscape with steep, rocky trails, wildflower meadows, and a Japanese garden reached by a steep hilly path. Facilities are minimal, so visitors should bring their own water and carry out their trash. Overnight stays, smoking, and fires are not allowed, but pets are welcome if cleaned up after.
