Confirmed from Bronx River Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Scenic park featuring hiking and biking trails, plus ancient bridges.
What runners say about Bronx River Park
“Oh the river and the birds and their songs are all so beautiful and relaxing.”
“Beautiful place for a nice calm walk, jog, or bikeride.”
It is a spectacular trail that allows you to enjoy a variety of species, it is very safe
This green park goes along the Bronx River and the Parkway from Bronxville all the way into White Plains. The park follows the river path, is paved and fenced in some parts. At some points it crosses the Parkway and at others it crosses the Train line which also runs parallel in most of path.
Westchester's evergreen at it's best. Peaceful even though near the parkway, great for walking ot running or cycling, I did only 5 miles up north but years ago made it all the way to bronx and it's worth taking the time to do it all. Just take a good sandwich and drinks and a good 10 hours of your day...
Amazing walking track with naturally preserved woods and ancient bridges. Oh the river and the birds and their songs are all so beautiful and relaxing.
