A starting point for a scenic hike leading to a prominent overlook with sweeping views of a historic river and a massive military academy nearby.
  • Bear Mountain Bridge Road

Tips from the community

If you're looking for a good first hike of the season to get yourself back into the swing of things, or an introductory hike in the Hudson Valley area, Anthony's Nose is a perfect option. It is a pretty well trafficked out and back trail with some small streams and a little bit of fun (and easy) rock scrambling. The summit looks out over the Bear Mountain Bridge and the Hudson River. Be sure to get there early because the parking area is SMALL!

    One of the easiest ways to get out and enjoy nature is with a great hike! This list consists of some of my favorite trails in the lower Hudson Valley. From Anthony's Nose and Camp Smith to the Lemon Squeezer, there's something on this list for all levels. Plus, all of these hikes are within two hours from New York City. Don't have a car? No worries, some of these can even be accessed using Metro North!
