The view from this park in New York is absolutely stunning! (1)π
The azure sky reflecting on the rippling waters and the autumn leaves add a charming hue to Bear Mountain. π’π This week marks the peak of autumn foliage at Bear Mountain in New York. Whether you're up for a hike or prefer a leisurely stroll, don't miss the vibrant palette of colors spread across the mountainside. Hiking Trails (route map attached as the last image) π’π For seasoned hikers, the Appalachian Trail (marked as the white line in the map) is highly recommended. However, many hikers follow the white line and miss the Bear Mountain Bridge Scenic Lookout. This lookout offers a panoramic view of the Hudson River. π’π The sense of accomplishment from this vantage point, where you can see the world below, is unparalleled by any other trail. The entire hike takes about 3-4 hours, with many stone steps along the way. π’πThe mountains are covered in red leaves, and every turn offers a new scenic view. The location of the lookout is marked with a red circle in the last image. #NewYork #NearbyNewJersey π½β¨
