Confirmed from Hudson 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.
Park featuring a playground, picnic tables, and tennis courts, plus a boat launch.
What runners say about Hudson River Park
“Water was super calm, peaceful, and warm for a nice early evening paddle.”
Nice small, but deep boat launch with dock. No problem launching my 22' deck boat. Pretty area of river to see fall foliage or swim in the summer. You must get off I87 at X18, then make first right back a few miles to the park and river.
Nice place to walk its after the boating season.the gate locked so no cars or pickup trucks
Nice small park not to crowded. No facilities one small picnic table and two benched as well as a small play area. Further down the road is a boat launch nice nature walk area tennis courts and a baseball field
Great park with tennis courts, basketball courts, baseball field,free boat launch,fishing dock separated. Gazebos all over. Nature walks along river,great spot alone or with friends and family.
