Getting to
the Hudson Valley
Want to do some exploring in New York City?
Fly into LaGuardia or Jfk.
When you're ready to head upstate:
​​​​
1. Take the subway, or Uber, to Penn Station.
​
2. From Moynihan Train Hall, take the Empire Service to Hudson. Try to snag a window seat! The train track is above ground with river views for the entire trip. There's also a bar cart, or you can —discreetly — byob. Tickets are $33 pp. Purchase them online ahead of time.
​
3. Disembark at Hudson Station. Walk to your lodgings on Warren Street, or grab an Uber if you're staying in Athens or Catskill.
If you want to rent a car, we recommend this Enterprise in Hudson.
​
Q: How long will it take?
The train from Penn Station to Hudson takes about 2 hours on the dot. If you prefer to rent a car in the city and drive upstate, the trip takes almost exactly the same amount of time, coming from Manhattan.​
1. Fly into Albany International Airport.
​
2. Rent a car and drive south towards Hudson on the I-87. (Some routes from Albany may require tolls).
​
Q: HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
Driving from Albany to Hudson takes about 50 minutes.

*We suggest looking into red eye flights if coming from California. Heading east, they're often cheaper. Plus, you can save a day of travel by flying at night and acclimate more quickly to the time change!​
