Woodstock NY Travel Guide For A Great Escape

By Eric Long


When one thinks of Woodstock in the United States, images of hippies dancing about to Bob Dylan and Cat Stevens arise. You think of mud and young people covered in this as they slide around before they reach for the sky, celebrating freedom. However, there is a lot more to know about the area. With a Woodstock NY travel guide, you can get a lot out of this beautiful part of New York.

Of course, a lot of people still want to go to Woodstock in order to feel the vibe and the atmosphere which was once present and is still there to some degree. Some of the locals on Tinker Street will make you feel as if you were there. It is great to have a conversation with them about the days gone by.

You are surrounded by nature with many exciting trails where you can go hiking. There are some great spas where you can get away from everything and escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and the office environment. It is great to be able to talk to the folk here about their lives. Not everyone here are aged hippies.

Of course, there are bigger concerts organized for well known artists as well. This is something well worth seeing. You can make a vacation of it as well. Once you have been to the concert, you can take a day to stroll around Tinker street and buy yourself a souvenir. You can then take a walk on one of the trails or simply go and listen to a musician strumming away at one of the bars.

However, there are certain parts of Woodstock where you will think you are back in the sixties. Here, you will find aged hippies who will be selling their goods. Certain parts are very bohemian. There are some great arts and crafts stores. You won't only find t-shirts here. You can spot some very talented artists here.

There are a variety of treatments which you can take advantage of. Most spas will give you a package deal and this is great for people who want to spend most of their time here. This combined with time spent outdoors walking on the trails can be something which you will live to remember. Many people come back for an experience like this.

As you meander through different parts of the town, you will still feel the vibe and the atmosphere that was once present in the sixties and the seventies. You don't find this in many other towns. It is often the people, the music and the art which bring it back to life. This is what makes it feel so alive.

For someone who is looking for a little adventure, this may come in the form of hiking, mountain biking or swimming. Of course, you have to watch the weather. Both seasons can be beautiful. Sometimes, you may just want some time out which is relaxing and this is very possible in a place like Woodstock.
