7. Hudson Highlands State Park
Hudson Highlands State Park is unsurprisingly found on the Hudson River between the towns of Beacon and Cold Spring. Hikers will like the 5.5-mile Breakneck Ridge Trail which rises 1,250 feet in a three-quarter-mile section close to the top. There’s also the Bull Hill Trail, which provides hikers with great views of the neighboring Storm King Mountain. There’s also a less challenging trail at Dennings Point which provides views of the waterfront and abandoned buildings being reclaimed by nature.
8. Buttermilk Falls State Park
Only one mile from Robert H. Treman State Park, you’ll find beautiful Buttermilk Falls State Park just outside of Ithaca. The park is named after the incredible Buttermilk Falls, which plunge down the shale rock to a sparkling natural pool where travelers swim in during the hot summer months.
The gorge here includes other smaller falls that altogether drop a total of 600 feet. There’s also the 4.5-mile Lake Treman Loop, Pinnacle Rock, and the wetlands around the lake.
