Hudson River Waterfront Walkway

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Hudson River Waterfront Walkway is an 18.5-mile scenic path along the western shore of the Hudson River. It stretches from Bayonne to the George Washington Bridge. Open 24/7, the walkway offers free public access for walking, jogging, biking, fishing, and more. The Hudson River Waterfront Conservancy oversees its development and maintenance. There are restaurants along the walkway and photo-worthy views of the city skyline.

The Little Red Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Iconic building straight out of a picture book. Even if the approach to the bridge from here is a little complicated, the detour to the lighthouse is worthwhile.

Hudson River Greenway

Highlight • Cycleway

A really nice walk along the Hudson. Also many pedestrians and surprises (be careful). If you can, drive onto the Washington Bridge and see Manhattan

Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum

Highlight • Monument

If you have time, you should definitely plan a detour to the aircraft carrier. I have visited him several times in the meantime. Worth it.

Little Island at Pier 55

Highlight • Structure

An artificial island standing on 132 tulip-shaped pillars. Many paths and a number of trees invite you to stroll and linger, and various artists often perform in the amphitheater. Admission is free. If too many visitors want to come to the island, numbers are given out to reduce the rush. Since the island protrudes quite far into the water and is up to 20m high, it offers wonderful views of the city.

Hudson River Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Hudson River Greenway is a great adventure and a treasure. Depending on the weather and day it can be very populated with cyclists and joggers. That too is enjoyable.

Fort Washington Park Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Quite far from the center and the "usual" sights, but easy to reach with a rental bike. A pleasant change after the houses and asphalt sea of Manhattan.
