Welcome to a unique experience at Hungry Ghost Guest House, a small New Paltz, New York bed and breakfast with an "active retreat" feeling. Located on 20+ wooded acres at the base of the Mohonk Mountain Preserve, you will be yards away from the rail trail and only minutes from Minnewaska State Park. We take pride in serving an organic vegan breakfast to our guests, incorporating mainly local ingredients. Mike and Petra Trunkes are excited to be your hosts.

Nestled in a hemlock clearing, Hungry Ghost is a premier New Paltz, NY retreat. Just moments away from access to well over 70 miles of maintained carriage trails for running, hiking, bouldering, and mountain biking (cross-country skiing is only a short drive away.) Enjoy guided runs with Mike, an elite master's distance runner, or head off on your own. Bikes are available in town for a casual ride into town on the rail trail, or bring your own for a trek up into the mountains (rentals can be arranged.) When winter is upon us, ice skate on our private pond or snowshoe, weather permitting.

For the less athletic traveler, our B&B is conveniently located near walking trails and offers an eclectic collection of books to be enjoyed on the covered porch or out in the hammock with afternoon tea or a glass of our own filtered spring water. Or try a vegan cooking lesson with Petra.

After a full day of activities, come back to pick herbs or relax in our oversized hot tub and to sit by the wood burning fire on cool evenings. Enjoy conversation about food, the day's training and activities, or retreat with a glass of local wine that you have gotten from a day of wine-tasting.

On site massage is available by appointment scheduled in advance. Choose from light touch, relaxing massage to deep tissue sports massage. Weather permitting, massage can be enjoyed outside under a canopy by the pond, with an orchestra of wildlife to sooth you.
