Sightseeing
It is recommended to order tickets online and in advance. Very few same day tickets, if any, are available and tickets are not sold on site. Heads up- Must show proof of vaccination. Great place to indulge in modern art from the 1960's to current, with rotating exhibits. Plan on a 2 hour visit.

Outdoor Activites
TIPS:
There are an endless number of trails hiding in just the Beacon area alone that range from:
EASY- Walking trails with little to no incline or obstacles along the river or to visit ruins
MODERATE- Some difficulty including inclines and some obstacles, includes short or long hikes, safe for the moderately active
DIFFICULT- Please note, difficulty level could be just an intense incline but simple to navigate like Mount. Beacon or Difficult could be hand a foot rock scrambling that could be dangerous without the proper coordination, like Breakneck Ridge.
NOTES: Most trails in the highlands are heavily traveled and parking can fill up quickly. In non winter months it is suggested to start before 9am or after 4pm for less traffic in the lots and on trails.

Solid Diner food. Quick and Economical. Yankee clipper was built solely to be featured in the movie Nobody's Fool with Paul Newman which was filmed in Beacon. Instead of boarding it up like many other buildings on main street at that time, it was turned into an actual functional business.

Trendy, small plates, city vibe, great cocktail menu. Wonderbar is also attached and serves story screen the movie theatre . Although you can bring kids in here, it is less of a family friendly establishment but great for socializing with friends.
