Set on the west bank of the Hudson River, Highland pairs small-town warmth with sweeping valley scenery. Cross the Walkway Over the Hudson for big-sky views, then pick up the Hudson Valley Rail Trail toward New Paltz through woodlands and open meadows.
Just to the west rise the Shawangunk Mountains, with Minnewaska State Park Preserve and Mohonk Preserve offering sky-high cliffs, glacial lakes, and waterfall paths. Season to season, orchards and vineyards along the Shawangunk Wine Trail invite tastings and brilliant fall color.
Easy connections to Poughkeepsie and nearby river towns add galleries, theater, and waterfront energy to your plans without the rush of the city. Which is why Wander’s luxury vacation rentals in Highland, New York are the perfect choice, whether you travel for work or leisure.
