A prestigious tourist destination and Hudson Valley hotspot has announced an opportunity to visit their grounds while also supporting a great local cause. Here's how you can enjoy holiday offerings at Mohonk Mountain House.

Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz has invited visitors to take part in their holiday magic, and the opportunity to get an up close and personal look at their gingerbread house category winners that are now on display.

The Gingerbread Pass, which costs $15 per person, includes self-parking on the grounds, the gingerbread display, a self guided tour of Mohonk's Christmas trees and holiday decor, access to stroll through their 'magical and festive Winter Lights display' which runs from 5pm to 9pm, and access to open hiking trails.

In addition, the Gingerbread Pass offers special discounts in retail areas for the Spa & Fitness Boutique (not on services), Gift Shop, Green House, as well as 20% off lunch in the Main Dining Room Monday-Friday with reservations, and also a special rate for ice skating.

100% of the proceeds from Gingerbread Pass sales will be donated to the Regional Food Bank of the Hudson Valley.

Mohonk hosted their 9th annual competition day on December 8th, with more than 40 beautifully crafted gingerbread creations. The proceeds from entry into the event also supported the Regional Food Bank Hudson Valley.

The 1st through 4th place winners from each competition day category are still on display at Mohonk, and can be viewed using the Gingerbread Pass now through December 20th.

Passes can be purchased HERE. Once purchased, guests can visit using the Gingerbread Pass all day (regardless of time selected when purchasing a pass).
