      This pubic park runs four miles along Manhattans's west side from Chambers St. to 59th St. in NYC attracting over 17 million visits each year. The park offers a variety of recreational and educational activities along with great views of the Hudson River and the city. This 550 acre riverfront park is a beloved urban recreational paradise.

      Came here the other night for a fun picnic and absolutely loved it! The park is gorgeous and there are tons of tables/chairs to sit on as well as places to lie down. Just be careful if you sit on the ground because there are a ton of dogs and a lot of dog poop on the grassy area. Besides that, this place is kept very well and tidy.

      One of the things I really do like is that this park has clean bathrooms, restaurants, and beautiful views of the skyline and river. Check out Pier 40 while you're here.

      Beautiful day and a beautiful park. Lots of people out, plenty of joggers and a very nice path. I think we walked about 5 miles in total.

      New York City may be the "concrete jungle," but this park brings so much greenery to the city. Located along a stretch of the Hudson River, it is a fantastic place to walk, exercise, people watch, and just enjoy the view of Manhattan and Jersey. With the cooler weather, this really is the perfect place to be at in the city. Just feeling the fresh and cool breeze coming off of the river makes me happy. I would be more than happy to walk the entire stretch again in the future :)

      Covering an extensive portion of the west side of Manhattan, this park offered a fair number of facilities, a breeze off the water, shade amongst the greenery, and connections to various water activities. Given how hard it is to find a bathroom in this city, the buildings here were notable for that respect alone, but I stayed a while and walked along the park for some time. It was much more my speed than Times Square, but still worthy of a visit.

      I love living so close to this walking path because being able to see the sunset in NYC is not something that everyone can easily do. The park is always full of runners, pedestrians, and cyclists. It gets a little crowded when cruises are starting or ending so watch out for that but truly a very lovely part of the city that all should enjoy!!

      Extending some 4-5 miles alongside the west side of Manhattan, Hudson River Park is the second largest park in the borough after Central Park. The park rungs through Lower Manhattan, Greenwich Village, Chelsea, Midtown West and connects with both Riverside Park to the north and The Battery to the south. The park includes a number of tennis and soccer fields, batting ages, playgrounds, dog runs and has fantastic views of the Hudson and across the river to eastern New Jersey. It includes several of the North River piers along its length.

      We encountered the park just west of Chelsea Market on the way to Little Island park. There is at least this one spot at West 15th street with an open grass area, a number of tables and some shady spots for a picnic. Beautiful!

      Awesome park by the water! The views are amazing and it's a clean and wide path for walking, running, and biking. Highly recommend as a nice walk. Especially if you're planning on going to the World Trade Center.

      I am so happy and grateful the Hudson River Park exists. After moving to Manhattan, I didn't know this was a thing for several months. I finally stumbled upon a path that took my down by the river. I was so excited to know there is a running/walking path. I have been running next to the Hudson River for months now, and I find it so relaxing. It's usually kept tidy and clean (overall). They've been doing some re-routing of bike traffic during some construction but the flow still works. I have yet to go all the way down to Battery Park on the trail but I hope to someday!

      A great place for walking, playing sports and just relaxing in the fresh air. There are many paths for cyclists and pedestrians, sports fields for basketball, football and other sports. There are also many benches in the park where you can sit and enjoy views of the Hudson River and the city.

      One of the main advantages of the park is its beauty. Here you can watch beautiful sunsets when the sun sets below the horizon, painting the sky in bright colors. There are also many plants and trees in the park that create a pleasant atmosphere.

      In general, Hudson River Park is a great place to relax in nature and spend time with family or friends. I recommend it for visiting to anyone who wants to enjoy the beautiful views and spend time with health benefits.
