You don't have to spend alot of money to have an Amazing Valentine's Day. In fact, you don't have to spend any money and still have a day to remember at the Walkway Over the Hudson in Highland, NY. Built from an abandoned railroad bridge that spans the Hudson River, it is now a pedestrian park open to the public, and has the distinction of being the tallest (212 feet) and the longest (1.28 miles) elevated walkway in the world!

The views of the Hudson Valley Region from the Walkway are absolutely amazing (and absolutely free!) making the Walkway our top choice for those looking for a frugal Valentine's Day!
