Eagle Rock Reservation

It has a very scenic and serene view of Manhattan. I love this place, particularly morning and evening when the sun shines on the world center of cornucopia emotions, thoughts, rumors, love, and hate, aka, NYC. In addition, there are many quiet and well-organized trails that you can enjoy. Whenever I see the Eagle statue and the names of the victims of 911, I feel sad and wish that they have another wonderful life and come back to this scenery sometime soon in their next lives. This is where you will fall in love with the world.

For hiking, this park is awesome. It has a bunch of trails with different lengths and difficulties. Once you’re in them, you’re basically in the woods. I’ve gone in the summer but my favorite time to go is the fall. The foliage is beautiful. I’ve also BBQ’d here and loved it. They have an area with grills and it was spacious enough for me to run around with my neices and nephews and their nerf guns. I would definitely recommend it.

Eagle Rock Reservation has wonderful trails marked in different colors and the stunning 9/11 Memorial with spectacular views on NYC. It is a beautiful tribute with the names of those we lost listed on stone as you look at Mahattan. They also have cook out and relaxation areas - a must visit if you are in the area !
