City life got you feeling the pressure? Upstate New York getaways are the perfect way to decompress! With rugged mountain peaks, rolling hills, sparkling rivers, scenic trails, quaint towns, and a rich sense of history and culture, this region is a favorite for city folk seeking fresh air in their own back yards.

One of Upstate New York’s biggest appeals its its diverse topography.

From art galleries to independent boutique shops to family-owned restaurants and farmers markets offering an assortment of local goods, the region’s authentic cultural attractions create an immersive sense of place that never feels manufactured.
