Clove Mountain, Mountain summit in Union Vale, Dutchess County, US.
Clove Mountain reaches an elevation of 1,398 feet and marks the southern boundary of the Taconic Mountains with bedrock containing schist and phyllite.
The New York State Conservation Department constructed a 60-foot steel fire lookout tower on the summit in 1933 to improve wildfire detection in Dutchess County.
The mountain forms the western edge of Clove Valley, designated as a Significant Natural Area by the Dutchess County Environmental Management Council.
Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit, which features both a fire tower and an observer's cabin, though these structures stand on private property.
The mountain hosts several natural springs, including the headwaters of Fishkill Creek, which flows at several hundred gallons per minute.
