Occasional walking tours of Oak Hill Cemetery and downtown Nyack are led by Friends of the Nyacks; call or check online for dates and times.
The childhood home of artist Edward Hopper now serves as an arts center and exhibition space. The famed painter owned the Federal-style house, which was built in 1858 by his grandfather, until his death in 1967. A group of Nyack citizens saved the structure from ruin in 1971. Jazz concerts are held in the backyard on Thursday evenings in July. Look for free street parking one block north.
The stunning 61-acre park, known as Hook Mountain to locals, includes a main trail that stretches alongside the Hudson River and attracts bicyclists, dog walkers, stroller-pushers, and runners. Bird-watchers look for hawks, and area residents come with their lawn chairs and Sunday papers. Bring lunch and enjoy it at a waterfront picnic table, or visit in the colder months and cross-country ski on the trails. Parking is free daily from November through March, and on weekdays from April to mid-June and Labor Day to October.
The graves of many of Nyack's artists and writers, including Edward Hopper, Carson McCullers, and Helen Hayes, are in this cemetery.
