Featured getaway: Albany, New York
A rich 300-year history, a thriving arts community and seemingly endless wilderness make this New York capital city on the Hudson River great for a weekend break. Outdoor enthusiasts come here to ski, hike, canoe and fish; trout and small-mouth bass fishing is among the best in the USA. Mountains surround the city, and the tapestry of golds and reds on an autumn day is breathtaking. The city is dominated by an elaborate ten-building complex that includes the State Capitol; the New York State Museum, with life-like dioramas such as American Indian life and an Adirondack logging operation; and the oval-shaped Empire State Performing Arts Center, nicknamed "The Egg". History buffs will enjoy the colonial homes, historic churches and museums, and can tour 18th-century mansions, like the Schuyler, a superb example of pre-Revolutionary War architecture. Whether nature or history is your passion, you'll find an abundance of both in this upstate New York gem.

Vermont's largest and perhaps most cosmopolitan city, Burlington beckons with the perfect blend of old New England charm, arts, culture and nature. Located on the shores of Lake Champlain, between the Adirondack and Green Mountains, Burlington is one of those places you can't help but fall in love with. During spring and summer, the streets come alive with festivals and outdoor concerts. The picnic benches, playground and bike paths of Leddy Park are filled with warm-weather revellers, and opportunities to swim, fish or just relax on the beach abound. In autumn, the Burlington Bike Path is bustling with locals and tourists who come to view the vibrant autumn colours. In winter, lace up your ice skates and head to the Paquette Arena or grab your skis and head to any of the nearby resorts. Church Street Marketplace, with its early-1900s architecture, great restaurants, live entertainment, one-of-a-kind shops and well-known stores, is the focal point of the city centre. Any time of year is a good time for chocolate: be sure to stop by Lake Champlain Chocolates for a tour and taste.
