“This is one of the most peaceful places in Binghamton, it's really clean and is delightful to visit.”
Walking the river walk thru Binghamton is very relaxing, dogs love it and it's a fast direct path to get thru downtown. The scene and atmosphere is amazing. A place that I can center myself and refocus. Like a replenishment. I recommend every should walk the river walk at some point in their life.
It's calm and quiet most of the time, especially so at night. It is used for rough sleeping in the warmer months, I'd suggest being quiet and going about your business if you come across someone. My wee dug likes to walk there, and it's nice to bike by as well.
