Wind Gate, l'entrée nord des Hudson Highlands vue depuis Newburgh. Le Breakneck Ridge est sur la gauche, le mont Storm King sur la droite et Pollepel Island est au centre du fleuve Hudson. L'Académie militaire de West Point est visible au fond.

Les Hudson Highlands sont des montagnes situées sur chaque rive du fleuve Hudson dans l'État de New York, aux États-Unis. S'élevant plus précisément entre baie de Newburgh et la baie de Haverstraw, elles forment la région nord des New York – New Jersey Highlands.

L'Hudson pénètre dans cette région au sud près du mont Dunderberg et Stony Point et au nord dans les environs du mont Storm King et Breakneck Ridge, près de Cornwall.
