Things to Do in the Catskills - Check out the Sullivan County Dove Trail

The Sullivan County Dove Trail is one of the coolest public arts projects we’ve seen. It’s also a perfect socially-distanced activity and way to explore the Catskills. The Dove Trail commemorates the 50th anniversary of the 1969 Woodstock festival and celebrates its impact on the region. It’s a collection of 50 dove sculptures perched in villages, towns, and at several tourism businesses. Each permanently mounted dove is hand-painted by a professional local artist and inspired by the legendary event held here in 1969.
