Spanning both shores of the Hudson River, Scenic Hudson’s “emerald necklace” of parks offers 5,500 acres of outdoor thrills—opportunities to explore nature, admire breathtaking views, launch a kayak and learn about local history.
Each gem tells a story of determination, from forests and meadows saved from sprawling development to industrial waterfronts transformed into exciting places to experience the river’s power. The parks exist because citizens, communities and other partners joined Scenic Hudson to protect and restore these world-class landscapes and make them available to all. Plan your next walk with
