Beautiful scenic escape

by sharopooks at Citysearch

You can't beat the beautiful hillside views of the Hudson in this park. I live in WaHi and this urban escape is one of Manhattan's best kept secrets - spectacular views, near the Cloisters and not mobbed with people. Nice!

  • Pros: Views of Hudson, Peaceful

  • Pros: Quiet & Scenic, Fantastic museum, Inexpensive city day
  • Cons: Not enough eateries

  • Pros: Peaceful, Scenic
  • Cons: Far from midtown
