Fort Lee Park View

Highlight • Viewpoint

Park on a hill just off the Washington Bridge with great views of Manhattan. The small detour here is definitely worth it.

Hudson Drive

Highlight • Cycleway

This is what this road looks like, moderate surface, narrow and to share with cars (but few), constant up and down. But super nice location, with great views, quiet and relaxing.

On this side of the Hudson River you can enjoy nature, but there are few opportunities to strengthen yourself. However, there is both a small shop and a burger joint here. Friendly service, good food and even vegan on request.

Piermont Railway Station (historic)

Highlight • Historical Site

A restored 19th-century train station building at the start of a beautiful gravel trail. You can find many other interesting details on the photographed information board, but you should still go there.

Old Erie Rail Trail (gravel)

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

From this point there is a view of the mighty bridge, which can be crossed on a great bike lane. It's still a long way to New York, but you could also take the train.

Hudson River Drive

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

In summer you don't see much of the Hudson due to the lush vegetation, but the trail is still a pleasure. Asphalted, so easy to drive on, only slight inclines …

Manhattan View at George Washington Bridge Entrance

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view is great, no question about it, actually as well as from the whole bridge. However, it is topped by Fort Lee Park, which is just south of the bridge. The few meters for the detour are worth it.
