Default Bear mountain - what to do/see?

Hi guys,

Anyone has good "itineraries" for what to do/see around Bear mountain. Hard to believe, but I never been there - drove by once by mistake... Wineries? Good places to eat? Places to see? Roads to drive? Sightseeing? Anything else interesting? Wife and I are planning to spend a day there this coming weekend - will be in a family car with a 6 months daughter, so no speeding or excessive driving, but I do like to scout the roads for future and mark a few good picture spots.

Thank You!

Can only comment on the picnic and driving aspect...Check out Seven Lakes Drive within Bear Mountain, very scenic...drive across the Bear Mtn Bridge and immediately make a right and go on one of the most spectacular twisty mountain roads in the Tri-State area...Perkins Memorial Drive is nice also with a Lighthouse overlooking the Hudson Valley - on a clear day you can catch the NYC Skyline from this point.

A lot of twisties to the top of Bear Mountain. Always a lot of fun cars around. Cross the bridge and drive all the way up to the top.
