The Hudson Valley is a dream for day trips. The sheer abundance of idyllic towns in the region means there’s always somewhere new to discover (or rediscover, if you’ve been to the town before). Perhaps the most exciting part of life along the Hudson River is that it’s everchanging, with new businesses and eateries popping up each day.
Whether you’re a local or visitor to the Hudson Valley, use our day trip guides as a starting point for your adventures through fan-favorite towns like Beacon, Cold Spring, and Rhinebeck or waterfront destinations like Coxsackie, Nyack, or Piermont (and that’s just the start). Of course, if you uncover something new while you’re in town, so much the better — that’s the point of a day trip, after all.
