Review & FAQ:
Scenically nestled along the east bank of the Hudson River, the Hudson Highlands State Park stretches from Peekskill to Beacon in the east Hudson Highlands. The park offers locals and visitors a huge outdoor recreation area where you can pursue activities like fishing, hunting, birding and hiking. There are several scenic hiking trails including a 5.1 mile portion of the Appalachian Trail which runs through the southern part of the park. One of the most popular and challenging trials is the 4.6 mile Breakneck Ridge Trail – a steep ascent followed by a scenic mountain-top trail. You can also enjoy kayaking on the river – a launch site is available at Annsville Circle.
