Getting Around:

Alpine Nest is just 3 hours from New York City. A car is essential for getting there and exploring the area. The main access routes are the NY-17 E, I-87 S and NY-28 S. We strongly recommend a 4x4 or a car with four-wheel drive, especially in winter, to handle snow and gravel roads.



Other Things to Note:

Please note that the pool closes every year seasonally, just around Labor Day, and reopens typically around Memorial Day.
