Description
Escape the NYC heat with a fun, easy 2.24-mile out-and-back hike starting at Wawayanda Beach! We’ll enjoy shaded forest trails and peaceful lake views before returning to the beach to swim, relax, and soak up the summer. The perfect beginner-friendly adventure to stay active and cool off with great company.
Pack your favorite sandwich and drink, we will have a snack break on the trail.
To help everyone have a great experience, we’ll follow all beach rules and regulations. Please remember that speakers and alcohol are not allowed on the beach.
