Harlem River Park
4.3 (195)park
4.3 (195)Tiered paths running right along the water offer runners and cyclists scenic river views at this Manhattan park.
Description
Away from the main paths, the green space rises into small hills and includes a playground. While the upper path provides the clearest views, the entire stretch comes with the hum of nearby highway traffic, which persists without becoming overwhelming. Visitors should also anticipate larger crowds during the summer.
