The planned route consists of 9 miles of level terrain, much of it paved, and offers spectacular views of New York Bay, Ellis Island, and the Statue of Liberty. It will include renovated natural areas such as Caven Point Natural Area. We will also hike past the Park's interior section that is in the planning stage for restoration. This is a hike and we will carry lunch as is usual. Instructions for meeting at the start of the hike will be sent to those who register. In the event that you need to cancel, please do so with enough time for waitlisted people to take your place. Thanks for your consideration. To accommodate high demand this hike has been repeated from the previous week.
