Liberty State Park Waterfront Walkway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

An easy ride along the New Jersey side of the Hudson River with a great view of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. It's a short ride from a large selection of good pubs and restaurants in Jersey City. The Liberty State Park Walkway goes much further than what I've highlighted, but this is a key area.

Hudson River Waterfront Walkway

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Actually rather "look at the miss Liberty". But more than that. This is where the Ellis Island Bridge joins, where all immigrants used to undergo a health check. On the right you can see the Statue of Liberty (on another island), on the left the southern tip of Manhattan. All around is the huge Liberty Park.

Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal

Highlight • Historical Site

Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal - Very nice - little visited - park with beautiful historical grounds and a perfect view of the New York skyline. Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty are also much easier to reach from here.
