Day trip to beacon ny and a beautiful sunset at Hudson River. Beacon is located 60 miles north of NYC and is a charming historic town. Today, Beacon offers the perfect blend of activities for a day trip. You can enjoy some time in nature with a hike on Mount Beacon, get cultured at the city’s art museum, and spend the afternoon eating and drinking along the charming Main Street. Near to the Hudson river and scenic Highlands, this is a great destination for arty and outdoorsy types. ------------------------------------------------------------ This video will also cover these topics - Beacon Travel Guide || NYC to Beacon main street beacon Beacon's New York - The Ultimate NYC Guide What to see in Beacon, NY - The Travel Guide How to Design a Trip to Beacon NY Beacon Tour of New York ----------------------------------------------------------- Getting There:: Getting to #Beacon from NYC couldn’t be easier, which is why it makes such a great day trip. If you have a car (or want to rent one) you can drive the 60 miles north to Beacon. Parking in Beacon isn’t a problem, so you don’t have to worry about struggling to find a spot. I suggest taking the Metro-North Railroad from NYC to Beacon. From NYC, you can catch the train at Grand Central or the 125th Street Station. Beacon sits on the Hudson line and tickets cost about $46 for round-trip peak times (or $35 off-peak). You can easily purchase your ticket from a kiosk at the station. If you are planning to visit the Dia:Beacon art museum, consider purchasing a Getaway package. Metro-North offers discounted tickets if you combine your train fare with the art museum. The round-trip getaway ticket + Dia:Beacon tickets cost $40 for adults. (Dia:Beacon tickets alone cost $15 for adults). To buy these tickets, select getaways at the ticket kiosk at the train station. After you purchase, you will be given two tickets, one for the train and one for the museum. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Casey Cook - Around You - https://thmatc.co/?l=065E88E9
