Cold Spring
Cold Spring, New York
A 19th-century town at the foot of the Hudson Highlands, with antique shops, cafés and a riverside pier facing Storm King.
Nestled at the foot of the Hudson Highlands, this town grew in the 19th century around the West Point Foundry. Its main street is lined with well-preserved Victorian buildings and is full of antique shops, cafés and restaurants. At the end of Main Street, the riverside pier and gazebo look straight across the valley toward Storm King and West Point, making it a classic photo spot. The train from Grand Central Terminal takes about 75 minutes, and the station is right by the town. It is often combined with the Breakneck Ridge hike and Dia:Beacon.
