A curated selection of Hudson Valley food, drink, artisans, and producers will exhibit their wares for tasting and purchase at Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park during Walktoberfest on Saturday, October 5 and Sunday, October 6. 

Held inside a beautiful clear-top tent at the Walkway’s Ulster Welcome Center Plaza (87 Haviland Road, Highland, NY, 12528), Walktoberfest commemorates the 10-year anniversary of the opening of the Walkway on October 3, 2009.

This celebration of the Hudson Valley harvest takes places from 12-5 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. Alcohol and non-alcoholic tasting tickets are available now at walkway.org/walktoberfest. Full tasting tickets cost $20, Walkway members, veterans, active duty military, and senior citizens (65+) receive discounted admission. Non-tasting tickets cost $10.

In addition to the food and beverage samples, attendees will enjoy cooking and cocktail demonstrations, children’s activities sponsored by Hannaford Supermarkets and The Home Depot, and more.

Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park is fully open and accessible at no cost as usual throughout Walktoberfest. Tickets are solely for access to the Walktoberfest tasting and showcase tent.
