Great walk in the fall with terrific views of the Catskills mountains and the Hudson River. Very well maintained with some parts partially paved and some grass trails. A little steep when you get closer to the river but well worth the effort

Very pleasant walk with beautiful views. Some parts were a little muddy and slippery but doable! It takes about an hour to do the whole loop and it’s totally worth it especially during fall!

This park has it all. Beautiful views and walking paths. The walk can get a bit challenging at times with inclines but overall a great balance. Some truly great scenery.

First time here. Arrived at 10:30 in the morning on a Sunday and it wasn't to busy. By the time I left at 12:30 the parking lot was completely full. Great place for a nature walk, great place to take a variety of photos. Some uphill spots but not tremendously steep, some tree roots exposed on parts of trails. Just a warning for people that are expecting a completely easy and flat walk. I fell in love with this place and I'll definitely be returning. The little brooks in the ravine, the Swallows flying all around eating the bugs, the trees, nature and sounds of birds was all so wonderful.

Dog owners are very responsible here. Friendly dogs, mostly on leash. Owners bag poop and remove it. No trash removal service at this park.

A safe crushed gravel path leads to first view. After that, there are muddy spots that become quite slippery after the rain.

Hi- are there restrooms available at Poet's Walk Park? Also are we allowed to bring chairs and a blanket for a picnic? Thanks-

Is there a place to picnic near the walk?

There are benches but no tables. The pavilion or the flagpole are good spots if you pack a sandwich.
