Overlook Meadow — Attraction in New York

Along the way, you'll pass through scenic Overlook Meadow, which grants a view of the rock formations across the river. The 1.3-mile Orange Trail includes some unpaved paths that arc further north through the forest to views of the Hudson River and Spuyten Duyvil Creek. The 1.2-mile White Trail ascends stone stairs, continues to the edge of the river, and ends at the sports fields and grills on the park's western edge. Continue a bit past the trail's end to the south to reach Dyckman Field, which serves as an off-leash area during the first three and last three hours the park is open. You can use connector trails to map a route that ends at Homer's Run, the fenced-in off-leash are on the east side of the park. Highlights of the park's natural scenery include the only salt marsh in Manhattan, and caves that members of the Lenape people once used as a seasonal camp. Over 250 species of trees grow in the park, and over 150 kinds of birds have been spotted here, including brown thrashers, indigo buntings, and treetop warblers. Wildflowers including Dutchman's breeches, trillium, jack-in-the-pulpit, and mayapples bloom in warmer months. Salamanders, flying squirrels, and meadow voles also make their home in the park.
