There's bench seating in the back. Good for one or two people, or large groups. It can get noisy when it gets busy!

Parks & Nature

Lots of hills for aerobic exercise, breathtaking views of the Hudson from certain points. Lots of winding paths to get lost in while enjoying being in a legitimate forest while never leaving Manhattan. A lot of people have heard of Fort Tryon Park but few have been and really explored!

This is a pleasant water access point to the Hudson River, next to the bustling restaurant, La Marina. This is not a beach for swimming, but offers beautiful views of the George Washington Bridge to the south and you can just see the Tappan Zee Bridge to the north
