Three hours. Five hours. \n Pick a direction. Pack a bag. Leave Manhattan behind. \n We find the festivals\, farm dinners\, concerts\, art walks\, mountain towns\, swimming holes\, ski weekends and strange little Upstate happenings worth getting in the car for. \n Some are close enough for Friday after work. Others deserve the long weekend. All of them give you a reason to get out of the city. \n \n \n Explore this weekend\n \n \n Or start with the drive:\n 2 hours\n 3 hours\n 5 hours\n \n Drive times are approximate from Manhattan and\, because this is New York\, traffic has opinions. \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Pick your distance \n How far do you want to go?\n You don't need another list of 100 things to do Upstate. \n You need one good reason to leave. \n Start with how much road you're willing to put between you and Manhattan. \n \n \n \n 2hours · decide on Friday\n Leave the laptop. Bring the overnight bag. \n Close enough to decide on Friday. Far enough to wake up Saturday surrounded by mountains instead of scaffolding. \n Think Catskills trails. Waterfalls. Farm stands.

So does your inbox. \n Three hours changes things. \n The towns get smaller. The roads get quieter. The mountains get bigger. \n This is where weekends stretch out: farmers markets in the morning\, a hike before lunch\, breweries in old barns\, antique stores you didn't plan to enter and dinners worth driving twenty extra miles for. \n Stay two nights.

Three hours. Five hours. \n Pick a direction. Pack a bag. Leave Manhattan behind. \n We find the festivals\, farm dinners\, concerts\, art walks\, mountain towns\, swimming holes\, ski weekends and strange little Upstate happenings worth getting in the car for. \n Some are close enough for Friday after work. Others deserve the long weekend. All of them give you a reason to get out of the city. \n \n \n Explore this weekend\n \n \n Or start with the drive:\n 2 hours\n 3 hours\n 5 hours\n \n Drive times are approximate from Manhattan and\, because this is New York\, traffic has opinions. \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Pick your distance \n How far do you want to go?\n You don't need another list of 100 things to do Upstate. \n You need one good reason to leave. \n Start with how much road you're willing to put between you and Manhattan. \n \n \n \n 2hours · decide on Friday\n Leave the laptop. Bring the overnight bag. \n Close enough to decide on Friday. Far enough to wake up Saturday surrounded by mountains instead of scaffolding. \n Think Catskills trails. Waterfalls. Farm stands.
