Rosendale lies in the heart of New York’s historic Hudson Valley in Ulster County, about midway between New York City and Albany. The population of the town is approximately 6,500. The town’s claim to fame is for being the source of “Rosendale Cement,” which was used in the foundations for both the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty. The main street business district of Rosendale has many shops and services, and area accommodations range from cozy bed & breakfast inns to larger hotels and resorts. Attractions in town include the Delaware and Hudson Canal, the Natural Cement Historic District (including the Snyder Estate and the Widow Jane Mine,) and Perrine’s Covered Bridge and the 1895 Wallkill Valley Railroad trestle. In addition, the nearby Shawangunk Mountains are a hiker’s paradise, and it is also a popular place for rock climbing (the Shawangunks have become one of the most sought after rock climbing challenges in the country.) Rosendale is also fast becoming known as “The Festival Town.” They host a Chili Bowl Festival in February, the Beltane Festival in April, Rosendale Street Festival in July, as well as a Mid-Summer Festival in July, Founder’s Day in September/October, an International Pickle Festival in November and A Rosendale Christmas in early December.
