Sleepy Hollow is a town built for the fall and winter, when crisp air envelops the entire atmosphere. In winter, as a shimmering frost covers the town, enjoy everything from historical tours to scenic riverwalks in this charming corner of Hudson Valley. During your stay at Sleepy Hollow Hotel, enjoy your proximity to these spectacular winter activities, which highlight the best the town has to offer.
Embrace the chilly winter air, put on your coziest scarves and jackets, and join us on a journey through the frost-kissed landscapes of scenic Hudson Valley.
Soak in the serenity of the winter season with a scenic walk along the Hudson River. This 5.2-acre park meanders along the bucolic banks of the river, taking you along various snow-covered landscapes. It’s part of the county’s plan to create a 51-mile long RiverWalk. This leisurely winter walk is a perfect way to rejuvenate your spirit and appreciate the natural beauty that Sleepy Hollow offers, all while enjoying the invigorating chill of the season.
One of Sleepy Hollow’s historic gems, the Old Dutch Reformed Church is a testament to the town’s rich heritage. Dating back centuries, the church’s iconic cemetery — an important part of “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” — is magical in the winter especially. As you explore the church grounds, visit the last resting places of notable figures like Washington Irving, Andrew Carnegie, Brooke Astor and more.
Venture just beyond Sleepy Hollow to explore the charming Main Street of nearby Tarrytown. Lined with historic buildings, boutique shops, and cozy cafes, this bustling thoroughfare exudes a festive charm during the winter months. Adorned with twinkling lights and seasonal decorations, Main Street invites you to shop, dine, and experience the warmth of small-town hospitality against a backdrop of winter enchantment.
