Confirmed from Haverstraw Beach State 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.
State park with kid-friendly trails, a river, and beautiful views.

Nice walking trail. Plenty of shade, the path was smooth and even, a good walk for all ability levels
Scenic views of the hudson n the bald eagles n hawks. Also great place to fish, rock climbing/scaling, running, cycling, hiking. Very serene n quiet--highly recommended!!!
the park has a nice trail along side the Hudson River and at the end you get to a house with rock faces
