Celebrate the New Year outdoors at the traditional first day hike at Walkway over the Hudson. Choose from a short walk to the flagpole (3/4 miles) or an extended loop along the Hudson River (3 miles).

The group walk to the flagpole at the Center Overlook will begin at 11am from both entrances.

Both entrances will be open. Leashed pets are welcome on the Walkway, but please note they are not permitted on the Mid-Hudson Bridge and therefore cannot participate in the extended loop hike.
