Weekend trip ideas from NYC

[Pingator]

I’m feeling totally burned out from work and really need a change of scenery, even if it’s just for a couple of days. I live in NYC and I’ve been thinking about some quick getaways from NYC that wouldn’t require too much driving or planning. Ideally, something peaceful but not boring, maybe some nature, small towns, or nice views by the water. I’ve already done the usual spots like the Hamptons and the Catskills, so I’d love some fresh ideas

I completely understand that feeling, sometimes it’s just necessary to take a break from the constant city rush. There are plenty of getaways from NYC where you can spend a calm and refreshing weekend surrounded by nature. A short drive can take you to peaceful beaches, small cozy towns, or quiet forest trails, perfect for recharging and clearing your mind. I recently found an article with a nice list of such weekend destinations and some lesser-known spots that might inspire your next trip http://exploratoryglory.com/travel-blog/beach-weekend-getaways-from-nyc-hidden-gems-for-a-perfect-escape
