Frost Valley is an educational and
recreational facility deep in the heart of the Catskill mountains.
From September to June, Frost Valley offers a unique Environmental
Education program to schools from the Tri-State metropolitan
area and from elsewhere in the Northeast. Environmental Education
introduces students to the wealth and splendor of the natural
world --epitomized by our 6,000 acres of forests, lakes, tumbling
streams and scenic trails-and teaches them respect for its inherent
fragility. The program is designed to complement a scholastic
curriculum, to provide students with hands-on experience of
the natural sciences, and to challenge their physical, social
and cognitive skills. The program is for all grades K-12. It
runs throughout the school year (including winter) and comprised
of three, four or five-day resident courses. Frost Valley can
cater to groups of any size from 10 to 400 and welcomes students
of all backgrounds and physical abilities. An average of 13,500
students and their teachers visit every year.
