| Activities & Recreation |
| Less than five miles from the city center, New Paltz recreational activities include hiking, biking, and rock climbing on the Shawangunk Mountain Ridge, nature hikes, horseback riding, and skiing at the Mohonk nature preserve, visiting the Robibero Family Vineyards, taking in the scenic Hudson River, as well as golf, fishing, kayaking and canoeing, sky diving, and cross-country skiing. For some R&R, spend a day at the spa, and of course, no visit to New Paltz is complete without a walk-in guided tour of one the oldest and most famous historical landmarks in America, Huguenot Street - dating back to 1692 and named after the French-speaking founders of New Paltz, the Huguenots. For a list of New Paltz annual events, including the Woodstock-New Paltz Art and Craft Fair, a winter carnival, the New Paltz Regatta and Halloween Parade, Night of 100 Pumpkins, piano summer concerts, a potato harvest fest, and much more, visit the New Paltz Chamber of Commerce online. |
