Wonderful place to hang out with your love ones, friends etc. There are so many options that you can do such as hiking, walking, sightseeing, to have a picnic, and you can also ride your bike. Parking is also easy and cheap!

This is a great place for a weekend hike near the city. Quite accessible by transport. The visitor center here opens at 10 am. It becomes a bit confusing to understand the start of the trail even with maps. The visitor center area just has a small easy historic park trail of less than a mile which doesn't really connect with the other main trails.The long path trail entrance has been closed for quite a few weeks now, so if you want to start the long trails you need to go to the Hudson terrace entrance of the park which is quite far from the actual main entrance and there is no internal connection as such since the path is closed for now. Once you reach the correct spot it is quite easy to navigate with the trail markers. To reach the picnic areas it is a steep walk down but the steps are properly carved out and it is manageable. We started the Allison's loop, met with Carpenter's trail and walked down to the Ross Dock picnic area, which is a very pretty spot with washrooms, benches, parking and a good view. Overall a good experience for a quick near the city unplanned hike.

Awesome park! The park has many historical features including several cannon barbette's and a very informative visitor center with gift shop. On the northern end is a great view of the George Washington Bridge.

Lovely park! Rode across GWB to visit it. Cicadas buzzing like mad. Turkey, squirrel chipmunk and bird calls. Certainly an escape from the hustle of NYC! Loved reading about revolutionary war history and where words come from! Visitor center was closed when I arrived.
