Things To Do
Opus 40
Considered by many to be 'the Stonehenge of North America', this is a world-famous nonprofit sculpture park and museum with more than 60 acres of meadows, forested paths and bluestone quarries — including 6.5 acres of earthwork sculpture created over 37 years by pioneering artist and professor Harvey Fite
Inquiring Minds Bookstore
Another great local bookstore in downtown Saugerties. Just explore.
Saugerties Lighthouse
This is a must for history buffs (Dad). Reachable by a stunning half-mile nature trail, the lighthouse offers a panoramic view of the Hudson River Valley and Catskill Mountains.
Falling Waters Preserve
A nice, short (30 minute each way) hike through a nature preserve. Trails are well-marked and maintained; suitable for regular shoes (hiking boots not necessary). Beautiful views of the Hudson, varied terrain, and waterfalls along the trail
Mohonk Mountain House
Worth exploring. If you like hiking with a view, try the Lemon Squeeze trail.
Rough Draft Bar & Books in Kingston
An independent bookstore, bar, and coffee shop located at Uptown Kingston's historic four corners. Serving craft beer and wine, Counter Culture Coffee, savory pies from Down Under Bakery, and a rotating assortment of local pastries and snacks. Worth a trip and supporting local bookstores.
Rose Hill Farm
Family Fun... It's fall in the Hudson Valley, so pick apples and drink cider or wine in their tap room.
Woodstock
Woodstock, NY is a lovely little town worth visiting, exploring, and getting to know. https://www.thrillist.com/travel/new-york/things-to-do-in-woodstock-new-york
Route 209
Other than being the first place to catch Kirlia in the Sinnoh Region, if you're my brother and prefer using Gardevoir in your final 7, Route 209 between Kerhonkson and Stone Ridge is a spectacular section of the country to relax, check out some breweries, and be with friends. You've got Rough Cut Brewing, Arrowood Farms, Westwind Orchard, and a plethora of other great spots to explore.
