Parks & Nature

Drive to Long dock park, (Just behind the Beacon Train station,) there should be plenty of parking. There are many easy trails with views of the Hudson river. If you make it all the way to the tip of Dennings Point and aren’t grossed out, I recommend going for a quick swim in the Hudson!
