The Berkshires, MA
If you're a NYC native, you probably haven't breathed in air this pure since, well, ever. The Berkshires in the Massachusetts mountains is the perfect getaway if you need some time away. We suggest planning a spa day at Canyon Ranch (duh), checking out the MASS MoCA, and a hike outdoors...if that's what you're into.
