Breeze Flights From Orlando, FL to Newburgh, NY From $69*

Tucked into a quiet hollow outside the big city, Newburgh is positioned as a gateway to Upstate New York and New England. Don’t sleep on this small town squeezed between the Hudson River and Stewart State Forest. Enjoy an escape to the outdoors and quaint historic spots for a getaway filled with hidden gems. 

First thing in the morning, head to Storm King State Park for a nature excursion. Howell Trail takes you through gorgeous, wooded space up Butter Hill Mountain to overlook the river. It’s a beautiful place to explore year-round with its summer greenery, cascading fall colors, and snowy winters. Afterwards, hop on a boat or rent a kayak out of nearby Plum Point Park and visit Bannerman Castle. Built in the early 1900s, the stone and brick facade modeled after Scottish designs towers over the greenery of a small island in the river. It stands surprisingly well-preserved and makes for a fun tour. 

Take the afternoon to peruse the cultural sites back in town. Check out Washington’s Headquarters State Historic Site, where the famous general and president lived during a crucial period of the American Revolution. Here he promoted ideals that would shape a new nation, including rejecting the idea of an American monarchy as well as military control of the government. Learn about all things choppers and bikes and browse a collection of over 650 vehicles at the Motorcylepedia Museum. Discover unique antique pieces at Newburgh Vintage Emporium. Afterwards, relax in Downing Park inspired by places like the National Mall in Washington, D.C. and Central Park in New York City. 

Getting hungry? Check out Front Street for dining options right along the river. Nearby Broadway is also a hotspot for restaurants and lively pubs. You can also peruse the many art galleries scattered around the area or catch a show at the historic Ritz Theater. You’ll appreciate good food and entertainment after a day filled with activities.
