What to expect on Bronx River Pathway – Bronx River view loop from White Plains
This loop offers a delightful journey through the Bronx River Valley, where you'll frequently cross the river on charming, historically-designed bridges and pass by old mill dams that create small waterfalls. The path winds through wooded areas and green spaces, occasionally giving you glimpses of the parallel Bronx River Parkway. While mostly paved, you'll encounter some sections of compacted gravel and unpaved segments, particularly between Hartsdale and White Plains, adding a bit of variety.

The pathway is particularly beautiful in autumn when the foliage is at its peak, but it's a pleasant ride throughout the warmer months. Remember that portions of the parallel Bronx River Parkway are closed to vehicular traffic on "Bicycle Sundays" in spring and fall, offering an extended car-free experience.
