About Candlewood Hills

The Candlewood Hills are a modest mountain range in upstate New York, characterized by rolling forested peaks and valleys. The terrain consists primarily of rounded, weathered summits with a mix of hardwood and coniferous forest cover. Numerous streams and small lakes are scattered throughout the range, fed by snowmelt and rainfall. The mountains have a temperate, four-season climate with cold, snowy winters and warm, humid summers.
