Looking for something fun and outdoors to do during the weekend? Join us for a day of hiking and day-trip to a small town along the Hudson River! We are headed to Cold Spring to tackle the Bull Hill Short Loop trail on this adventure.

After riding a scenic train from Grand Central, we’ll walk to the trailhead. The hike is around 4.5 miles and will take 3 to 4 hours including breaks. It is in a wooded area and has rocky portions so please wear suitable and sturdy outdoor shoes, long pants, and bring a lot of water. The trail is well-marked, but the steepness can make it challenging at times, based on prior experience of our guide. We will start early to make sure that we have plenty of time to complete the loop.

This hike offers some incredible views of the Hudson Valley. If you want more details about the hike, its highlights and challenges, check out this website.

Afterwards, we will explore the town of Cold Spring. From quaint antique shops, cafes, and a lovely waterfront, you’ll see all that is has to offer before returning to the city!

Ticket does not include lunch or your train ticket. The roundtrip train ticket is approximately $30. We encourage you to bring lunch and eat it when we reach the top of the mountain. Happy trails!
