Olive

As the olive is the symbol of peace, so is the town of Olive, a tranquil area within the Catskill Park and Catskill Forest Preserve filled with beautiful wildlife, cool clear streams, majestic mountain peaks, and unlimited opportunities for the outdoor lover. The sunrise and sunset at the Ashokan Reservoir is a breathtaking experience. Fishing, hunting, hiking, mountain biking, and exploring are a great way to spend a warm summer day. Or tube on the Esopus. Maybe even enjoy a fun game of Miniature Golf. But activities aren't limited to the nature lover --you'll find gift shops featuring locally made, handcrafted items; privately-owned restaurants; ice cream shops; bakeries; and beer pubs. It's a great time for everyone. COMPRISED OF: Ashokan, Boiceville, Krumville, Olivebridge, Samsonville, Shokan, and West Shokan
