The R.T.M.B.A. Lower Waterfall and Ale Trail in the Catskill Mountains of New York

We decided to try a short little hike in the Catskills that we found using our AllTrails app that promised a waterfall along Kiskatom Brook, and stumbled onto a large network of trails created and maintained by the Round Top Mountain Bike Association (R.T.M.B.A.).  The R.T.M.B.A. is working on providing riders with more mountain trails, and connecting local businesses in the process.  

We found this little walk along the Lower Waterfall Trail and Ale Trail to be a lot of fun.  With so many interconnecting trails, you really have a lot of flexibility when choosing your path.  For such a short walk, the waterfall was totally worth it.  However, now knowing that the trails were created for mountain bikes, next time I return it will be with a bike.

Dunn’s River Falls, Jamaica

To be honest, I had never heard of Dunn’s River Falls prior to our Jamaica trip.  But when I heard about the number one tourist destination that was even featured in a James Bond film, I did my homework (watched Dr. No) and decided that it was worth a visit.
