Explore the landscape, history, and politics of the New York City water supply in the Catskills! NYC’s water supply has shaped the Catskills for more than a century. These two places, 100+ miles apart, are connected by water and by a _very_ complicated relationship. If you drink NYC water, live or spend time in the Catskills, these watershed stories are worth knowing. Half-day tours visit scenic places around the Ashokan Reservoir; the full-day tour visits the Ashokan and Pepacton Reservoirs. Participants on past tours called the experience “mind-blowing,” “wonderful and informative” and “riveting”!
