The village of Cold Spring is nestled along the banks of the Hudson River, just 60 miles north of New York City. Today the village beckons visitors to come and enjoy a delightful small-town atmosphere, some interesting sight-seeing and some great hiking and kayaking.
Cold Spring was once home to one of America’s largest munitions factories at West Point Foundry – today you can take a self guided walk through the remains of the foundry. Other interesting landmarks include Bannerman Castle, The Chapel and Stonecrop Gardens. Hikers can enjoy several trails which wend their scenic way through the Hudson Highlands State Park and kayaking enthusiasts can access the Hudson River for a day on the water.
