Mountain Top Historical Society

The Mountain Top Historical Society (MTHS) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1973, committed to discovering, preserving, interpreting, and sharing the rich and unique history of the Mountain Top region in Greene County, NY. Through a wide range of programs and activities, MTHS promotes a deeper understanding and appreciation of the area's history, geology, literature, culture, and folklore.

The Mountain Top Historical Society campus at the top of Kaaterskill Clove in Haines Falls is open year-round to the public. Our campus includes a fully restored 1913 Ulster & Delaware train station, Hudson River School Art Trail interpretative display, pond, flat walking paths, adjoining picturesque Aaron Haines Family cemetery, Kaaterskill Rail Trail (KRT) parking and trailhead. We maintain a Visitors’ Center with trail information and displays from Memorial Day Weekend through mid-November.
