Gotham Mountain at Wurtsboro Airport

Wurtsboro Airport, The longest serving glider airport in the country, is the ultimate way to see the Catskills this fall. Manhattan roundtrip service to nearby Mohonk Mountain and YO1 Spa by Catskill Carriage.

James Sherman, Director of Marketing for Wurtsboro Airport says that this fall the coolest and most epic views of the Catskills foliage are from the air in a plane or glider, easily the best way to see the Catskills and Hudson Valley this fall.

Wurtsboro Airport under the direction of James is transforming into a true epic eco adventure from the air and the ground.

"We know that people who live in 'Gotham' (NYC) need a place to escape in all their senses," James said. "We are transforming this property into being 'Gotham's Mountain'. The place you can escape and have experiences and adventures not rivaled anywhere in the tri-state area."

After a breathtaking glider or plane ride to see the epic foliage you can come see the beginnings of a truly special property unfolding. Included in your adventure flight experience is a day pass into the 316 acre + historic, legendary property complete with trail tour of Delaware & Hudson Canal, Gumaer Brook, rustic camping sites, the beginning of a unique farm and Edible Forest Trail, featuring 50 varieties beyond organics vegetables, herbs, trees, fruit, berries and flowers for walking, biking, and includes lessons in health, wellness, fitness, and martial arts.

James ran Manhattan Trainers in NYC and still has health, wellness, fitness, longevity and Krav Maga clients to this day. As the only Israeli certified Krav Maga trainer in Upstate New York he knows a thing or two about providing experiences that are both adrenalin in nature but also calming to the soul. "I spent most of my time in Boston and NYC and I understand the pace of the rat race down there. I loved it but it was time to get more mountain in my soul," James said. "I want Gotham Mountain to be a place where people can come for a day or a weekend and be enchanted by our forest, get their blood pumping, take a ride in a plane or off road and then eat the most epic, good-for-you food grown right here... that's what is beginning here."

A glider ride during peak foliage is $99 per person and you fly with a professional instructor. If you have the courage you can even "take the stick" for a few turns. Or you can fly with your 2 friends in a plane for 4 including the pilot and have a group experience for the same $99.

Each ride, plane or glider, includes a day pass (normally $40) that gets you onto the Gotham Mountain property to experience all that they have going on, which grows by the day.
