The Hudson Valley and surrounding Catskill mountains are home to a collection of great ski lodges, easily accessible from the city.

With several resorts such as Windham Mountain, located within a few hours’ of the city, it’s easy to get away for a few days of skiing or snowboarding. Traveling to your favorite resort is even quicker when you choose HeliFlite for your charter! The Catskills are a great option if you’re looking for a winter getaway. You can enjoy downhill skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. There are also plenty of restaurants and establishments where you can enjoy an après-ski cocktail or a delicious meal after a day on the slopes.

Mohonk Mountain House

Founded in 1869, this Victorian castle resort is nestled on top of a mountain surrounded by 40,000 wooded acres on the shore of Lake Mohonk. The resort is located 90 miles north of New York City. It offers incredible farm-to-table meals at the on-site restaurant as well as an expansive list of other resort amenities and activities. Outside of the amenities provided at the resort, many nearby attractions fill your day, including the Minnewaska State Park Preserve, the Mohonk Preserve, Historic Huguenot Street, and The D&H Canal Historical Society and Museum. No wonder this National Historic Landmark continues to draw crowds from the city looking for an escape to the valley.

Historic Hyde Park

In addition to its natural beauty, the Hudson Valley is steeped in history. Vanderbilt Mansion, located in historic Hyde Park, was a seasonal residence of the Vanderbilts. When touring this 54-room, gilded-age mansion, you get a look into the opulence of the era. The estate’s interior is adorned with exotic paneling, antique tapestries, and imported marble. The home is a masterpiece of gilded-age architecture that can’t be missed.

Also located in Hyde Park is the Roosevelt Estate. This family home of former President Franklin Roosevelt was originally built in the late 1700s but was renovated into the Colonial Revival–style mansion that it is today in the early 1900s. The main house, known as Springwood, offered a needed escape to FDR during his time as president and, on occasion, was used to host foreign dignitaries, royalty, and many top cabinet members from Roosevelt’s presidency. A visit to the Roosevelt estate offers a unique look into history that helped shape our nation.

Arts & Culture

When visiting the Hudson Valley, be sure to make time to explore the lively arts scene. We recommend checking out the varied collections at the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center in Poughkeepsie, as well as the contemporary assemblages from the 1960s to the present at Dia: Beacon in Beacon, New York. Throughout the Hudson Valley, you can also happen upon hundreds of other small galleries tucked into the communities that make the Hudson Valley such a fantastic destination just outside the city.

Rhinebeck “the new Hamptons”

The tree-lined streets of Rhinebeck offer boutique shops and galleries waiting to be explored! If you’re looking for a sweet treat, or a delicious cup of coffee, stop by Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Paul Rudd’s establishment, Samuel’s Sweet Shop. Afterward, you can rest and rejuvenate at the Oldest Inn in America – The Beekman Arms. In multiple publications over recent years, Rhinebeck has even been called “the new Hamptons.” The small town’s friendly residents, surrounding attractions, and the area’s beauty continue to draw larger crowds looking to escape the bustle of city life.

Fall Foliage Tours

Fall is a great time to visit many parts of the Hudson Valley to take in and experience the vibrant fall colors as autumn leaves begin to present themselves. The leaves usually start to change during the month of September and peak in the middle of October. There is no shortage of parks where you can take in the rich fall colors. One of the region’s most visited hiking destinations is Kaaterskill Falls. During your 1.4-mile roundtrip hike to and from the multi-tier waterfall, you will be surrounded by the beauty and peacefulness of the Great Northern Catskills. Another favorite destination to take in the fall foliage is the Sky Top Tower on the Shawangunk Ridge in Mohonk Preserve. The tower stands at the top of the ridge overlooking the preserve’s 6,400 acres, providing impressive views of the surrounding area.
