Travel Tuesday: Today we hit up #mountbeacon, the highest point in the Hudson Highlands is located in ,#Beacon, one of the more popular #HudsonValley destinations for NYC day-trippers. Mount Beacon, as it’s known, rises to 1,611 feet at its highest elevation. According to Scenic Hudson, an advocacy group for the area’s natural resources,the path from the trailhead to the summit is “a shade over a mile and steadily uphill, [and] follows a winding road that passes some lovely rock formations.” Once you get to the summit, climb to the top of the fire tower for some amazing views of the Hudson Valley.
