Food Scene
Beacon Falls Cafe
472 Main StExcellent burgers, cosy relaxed atmosphere.
Great selection of cheese and charcuteries, with nicely paired wines. The egg bake du jour is my favorite, but everything on the short menu is great.

Pricier, but really great food. Again, amazin views. The sunday brunch is a huge buffet with everything you can imagina and amazing little deserts. Totaly worth it. I have noticed that I have a better chance of getting a table if I just show up! Making last minute reservation can be tricky. It's a popular place.

Arts & Culture
A must see. It's hard to decide what's more spectacular: the lush surroundings of the Dia Foundation's art museum, or the world-class artwork inside. the huge museum opened in 2003 in a former Nabisco box-making factory. It's home to large-scale works by Joseph Beuys, Andy Warhol, Louse Bourgeois, Dan Flavin, Gerhard Richter, Donald Judd...you get the idea.

This place is amazing, and we visit several times a year by ourselves, and every time we have guests! It's pristine 500-acre landscape of fields, hills, and woodlands provides the setting for a collection of more than 100 carefully sited sculptures created by some of the most acclaimed artists of our time.

Parks & Nature
All the amazing trails. the "Lemon squeeze" is for you if you want to see some of the coolest sights in the Hudson Valley and you’re not afraid to crawl under (and around, and through, and over) some rocks to see ‘em.
FYI! this hike costs twenty-one dollars PER HIKER on weekdays, and twenty-six dollars PER HIKER on weekends. It's expensive, but worth it.
