Fort Washington Park Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Quite far from the center and the "usual" sights, but easy to reach with a rental bike. A pleasant change after the houses and asphalt sea of Manhattan.

The Little Red Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Iconic building straight out of a picture book. Even if the approach to the bridge from here is a little complicated, the detour to the lighthouse is worthwhile.

George Washington Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

There is a path for bicycles and pedestrians on the south side of the bridge, but it is quite winding at each pillar. The driveway for bicycles is a bit confusing and narrow, it starts with an iron gate. Go north on Cabrini Boulevard, at the end turn left under the driveway and after about 50m you will see the (hopefully open) gate on the left.

Fort Lee Park View

Highlight • Viewpoint

Park on a hill just off the Washington Bridge with great views of Manhattan. The small detour here is definitely worth it.
