Yes, NYC is crowded with people but just 30/45 minutes outside the city (in any direction) brings you peace and tranquility (from beaches to mountains)

George Frole I’d recommend going a little further. Another 45 minutes from NYC will take you from the suburbs to true tranquility. Sincerely, someone who grew up 30 minutes from NYC.
Cold Spring is beautiful. I grew up not far from there. Cool little town. I moved to Florida and really miss the woods and the mountains. I spent so much time in the woods with my friends growing up. When I visited NY a couple years ago my sister asked me what I wanted to do most. I told her I want to go for a walk in the woods so we did. It was great.
Grew up and lived in Cold Spring on Fair St. Hiked that trail with my brownie troop in he early '60's. It's very different there now, but still beautiful.
I used to run up those mountains behind Haldane as kid with my friends back in the 70s. The town I was born and grew up in will remain in my memories forever. I'm sorry to say it's not the town I grew up in now. I do appreciate looking at the video.
I grew up in Cold Spring 40yrs ago retired to FL but how lucky we all were being raised in such a beautiful place. I hear it’s not the same anymore but I still miss it .
I live in cold spring and I love it here! And yes, there are antique shops EVERYWHERE.
I recently moved from the Hudson Valley to Texas and was missing home a bit. I heard of a fire on the mountain at breakneck ridge and was, disappointed. It get me reminiscing of the time I hiked breakneck with some friends, and the time I went and took my SATs at Cold Spring high school. I KZreadd Cold Spring and your video popped up. It did not disappoint man. Nice choice of music, and it’s nice seeing the perspective of some from NYC/out of town. Glad you enjoyed. You chose a nice day.
HI! I live in the area and it makes me so happy that people come up from the city for a quick gat-away! That being said, its important for hikers to know their experience level. Many people try to hike breakneck ridge because it's one of the more famous hikes in the area, but it is pretty difficult and for an unprepared hiker it can be dangerous. My word of advice is to research the hike before hand or go with someone experienced so you stay safe. Regardless of what hike you choose, you will have amazing views. Thanks so much for sharing this video!

So true! I live very close to bulhul and breakneck and i can never sleep in the summer there is always a helicopter or an ambulance coming by.
I've been following all your NYC clips but this might be my favorite. Maybe because I'm from a small town in Europe, maybe it's the music or the shorts of the hike, but I now know what I'm doing for my next trip to New York. Shout out from Croatia.

Yes it's an incredible place I have family that lives on Main Street in Cold Spring I usually go over to their house after the hike
This is why I love living in NYC.
I Live in The Bronx and LOVE driving up there to do my Fall Photography.
It must be wonderful to go from a chaotic, crowded, noisy city to Cold Spring, immersed in the enchanting nature. Beautiful this video! Even here in Bassano del Grappa we have several paths with wonderful nature !!!
Those early Saturday Metro North trains can get pretty packed

1 person great deal. 3 people would have more freedom in a rented car. Go to a restaurant 2 miles away for example instead of waiting around hungry
Why nyc such an underrated spot for big you tubers
$30 round trip! Metro North cost a lot less years ago. We used to walk on the tracks by the Hudson River to the trail and gate for Taconic State Park. There was a stream, waterfall, and a pond. We swam in the pond. Short hike but really nice. Had pizza in Cold Spring afterwards. But train being $30 would be beyond me.
What a beautiful place to hike. Thanks Jon.
After my most recent visit to NYC, I can understand being tapped out on the concrete jungle. Meanwhile, I have yet to visit the Hudson Valley. You have convinced me to prioritize it. In my opinion, this is one of your best videos.

One of the highlights in the Village of Cold Spring is the Magazzino Art Museum which is free and accessible by the museum shuttle that goes to the train station and picks up visitors. It isn't in the heart of the village but near a highway area.
Great video!
Bonsoir Jon...cette gare est magnifique....des paysages fantastiques........ ...merci pour ce super voyage ❤
Thanks for this info 👍 Next time I go to Cold Spring I'll go hiking on this trail.
This is great - thank you !
Hello John, would love to see you to visit Beacon, New York. It’s a cool town as well.
Another epic video like always sir
That shot of the Hudson with the train in the background is gorgeous. It’s such a different world. I would like to be on that train for the view alone.
Such an awesome city! 💙💛

What!? When did you guys hike through? I hike Washburn everyday, as I have been working on the trail crew since May. I worked on building the new trail you guys walked to that Cold Spring overlook. We also helped clear some of the path just past the quarry (after the area that gets flat). :) Anyway, Cold Spring is a very cute town. So beautiful!
I’d appreciate more videos like this! It’s nice to see places to check out outside of nyc but in new york
Video is nice and thank you. Its much more impressive in person.
Thank you. Planning on heading there tomorrow God- willing.

Wondering any snake? I think you did mention the rattlesnake? I was planning to go this Saturday!
Love Cold Spring. I’m in Beacon next stop north.
We went to breakneck ridge on memorial day weekend first time hiking up to the top it was pretty intense and sooo busy that day just lines of people trekking up the mountain we vlogged the best we could that day. Drove to Cold Spring on the way back it was such a cool town with so many little antique shops on their main street. Definitely a good day trip from the city!

Wow, this hike looks so beautiful! What an amazing idea for a little getaway whilst in NY, I love this!
Thank you for the shout out for my honey cart ! I hope you enjoyed the honey!
That was great. Looks like a sweet little town. Thank you.
OMGosh this is so cool 😉
Thanks Jon, excellent job as usual and really good advice on how to decompress for a while.
You should do the beacon mountain it is right on the edge of cole spring and beacon I’m from beacon and can not believe how close you are.

@@LincolnintheAdirondacks I didn't know "Rattlesnakes" existed back East. I thought it was a Southwest thing. We often do get reports of "Diamondback" attacks in most of our mountain parks and some of the outlining residential areas. I just haven't seen any since moving to Phoenix 25 years ago.
Just came back from cold spring ny, all I can say is that sandwich from cheese was absolutely 100% garbage.

They have SUPER agressive cops there, several pending law suits. Come on Vacation leave on Probation.
That wasn't a rattlesnake. It was Mrs. Clinton cackling around in the woods.
Look out for the killer of cold spring. They've never caught him. 6 murders have been attributed to this monster.
