Explore the Historic Grounds of the United States Military Academy

Getting There

• Train

  From Greenwich, head to the Greenwich Metro-North Train Station located at 2 Railroad Ave. Purchase a ticket for the Hudson Line to Poughkeepsie, as this train will take you towards West Point. The journey will take approximately 50 minutes. Once you arrive at the Peekskill Station, exit the train and walk to the bus stop located across the street from the station. Take the Bee-Line Bus #63 towards West Point. This bus will take you directly to West Point, and you should get off at the stop nearest to the United States Military Academy.

• Bus

  If you prefer to travel by bus, you can take the Greyhound or Peter Pan bus services from the nearest bus terminal in Stamford. You will need to first take the Metro-North train from Greenwich to Stamford. Once at Stamford, find the bus terminal and board a bus heading to New York City. Request to get off at the West Point stop. From there, it's about a 15-20 minute walk to the United States Military Academy located at 606 Thayer Rd.

• Bicycle

  If you're feeling adventurous and would like to cycle, consider renting a bike in Greenwich. Head north on the scenic roads toward Poughkeepsie. It’s a longer ride, approximately 25 miles, so prepare for about 2 hours of cycling. Follow the signs that lead towards Route 9W, and then take Route 218 until you reach the entrance of the United States Military Academy. Please ensure to check your map for bike-friendly paths along the way.
