It looks like a vintage movie set, but the tiny wooden train platform created specifically for Appalachian Trail hikers, about two miles outside of Pawling, is for real and operates on weekends and holidays. Don’t be fooled: The trail from the train station starts out easy and flat along a lovely wooden boardwalk over Great Swamp wetlands brimming with birds and frogs. Fields and forests follow, but then comes the whammy: a steep ascent to Cat Rocks that is rewarded with pretty, panoramic views.
