πΆββοΈ NYC | Car-Free & Stylish Hiking Guide (Black Friday Edition)
π Perfect for a Black Friday hike! Close to Woodbury shopping outlets. We took the Claudius Smith Den and Lake Skenonto Loop trail, mapped on AllTrails. π Transport: You can take Coach USA from Port Authority or hop on a train from Hoboken to reach Tuxedo. From the station, itβs about a 15-minute walk to the trailhead. Since we have the NJ Transit monthly pass, we first took a bus to Rutherford for breakfast, then caught the train (only $9 for the trip!). π½οΈ There are three small cafes near the station for snacks, though we skipped them and headed straight to Woodbury Common after the hike β just one more stop by train, then a $10 ride share. ποΈ Trail Review: A moderately easy hike with short, gentle climbs. Though the trees are mostly bare now, we imagine itβd be stunning under fresh snow β maybe next time! And guess what? We spotted deer along the way! π¦βοΈ β¨ Perfect for those without a car who still crave a nature escape. Hope this helps you explore the great outdoors β comfortably and stylishly! #CarFreeNYC #HikingNearNYC #BlackFridayHike #TuxedoPark #WoodburyCommon #EasyTrails #NatureEscape #NYCHiking #PublicTransportHike #FallHikes #WinterTrails
