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.

There are some great little pubs to go to which are run by the locals. For folk who like to people watch, this is a great spot to start off at. There are also some bistros run by aged hippies, serving things like waffles, omelettes and other veggie delights. This is something to enjoy as well. There are more gourmet treats which you can find in other parts of town as well.

Don't miss out on the center for photography. This is a gallery which is in fact nonprofit. There are many speakers who come here on a regular basis. It is a good idea to plan your trip based on the speaker who comes here during the year because it can be worth your while. Back in the day, musicians such as Bob Dylan and Joan Baez used to perform 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.

For many people who have not been to Woodstock, they simply love to people watch. The best thing is to go to a local restaurant. You will see some of the hippies serving proper comfort food. Of course, this is not gourmet style. There are a few of these restaurants available as well. But it is always a nice idea to be able to live like a local and get an idea of what it was like to live at this time.

There are great music festivals which are organized at different times of the year. It may be worthwhile booking some time off work to attend one of these. Most people don't go and view musicians because of the quality of the music. A lot of musicians are just passionate about what they do. They may be an old timer and they just like strumming away to the Beatles.
