Van Hoevenberg Trail is a short, out-and-back cross-country ski route in New York's High Peaks Wilderness, managed by the State Department of Conservation. The trail is about a mile long, with a total elevation gain of about 415 feet, and it rises from roughly 4,457 feet to about 4,843 feet. The climb is steep in the middle, with a grade of about 27% at about half a mile in. The trail is rated hard, and the climb is the main challenge. It works well as a short outing in the wilderness, and the surrounding area offers plenty to pair it with. Panther Gorge, a climbing area, and the Shorey Short Cut Trail are both about a mile away. The State Range Trail and the Elk Lake - Marcy Trail are each about 1.3 miles off.
