Peekskill · From NYC

Peekskill from New York City

Westchester County

Peekskill is one of the canonical NYC weekender destinations, close enough for a day trip and distinct enough to feel like an escape. Artist-revival Westchester: Paramount Hudson Valley, a gallery-and-residency scene, and three licensed shops at the Hudson bend. Below: how to get there from Manhattan or Brooklyn (Metro-North, Amtrak, I-87, the Bear Mountain Bridge), where to stay, the licensed dispensaries worth a stop, and a tight one-day or two-day itinerary. New York state law prohibits cannabis consumption on state-owned land and in public spaces. Adults 21+.
