Hudson Valley Just north of Manhattan, this region’s magnificent landscapes have inspired generations of artists, writers and statesmen. It still inspires today: National Geographic TRAVELER named the Hudson Valley a Top 20 Must-See Place for 2013 on their annual Best of the World list. Discover charming riverside villages, fun festivals, and farm-fresh Hudson Valley cuisine. Tour historic homes like the Vanderbilt Mansion and Franklin D. Roosevelt’s home in Hyde Park, the Rockefeller estate, and Boscobel—a grand estate that presents the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival to over 30,000 fans every summer. Listen to some of the country’s best folk musicians, June 15 to 16 at the Clearwater Festival, founded more than 40 years ago by iconic folk singer Pete Seeger. The newly-expanded Hudson River School Art Trail (hudsonriverschool.org/trails/1) features a mobile app and maps to 17 sites with breathtaking views. Walk amid landscapes that inspired America’s great 19th-century painters and visit their historic homes. Stroll the meticulously designed grounds at Olana, Frederic Church’s splendid estate in Hudson. See works by contemporary artists at the open-air Storm King Art Center, where an ever-changing sky serves as backdrop for 120 monumental sculptures. Shop for unique regional art and crafts at Sugar Loaf Village. Galleries and shops line the main streets of towns like Nyack, Rhinebeck and Hudson, known for some of the nation’s best antique hunting. In Central Valley, Woodbury Common boasts the world’s largest collection of designer outlets. Watch old-fashioned madcap air shows at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, home of the world’s largest collection of historic bi-planes. You’ll definitely eat well in the Hudson Valley—from legendary country inns to the famous Culinary Institute of America. Or go to the source and visit the region’s abundant farm markets, artisanal cheese makers, and award-winning wineries and craft-breweries.
