Area Attractions

The Hudson Highlands is the perfect state park for outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, hiking, and birding.

The park?s extensive hiking trail network includes terrain that varies from easy to challenging. Trail maps can be obtained at the Clarence Fahnestock Memorial State Park office. The park?s most well known trail ? Breakneck Ridge was rated by Newsweek as one of the top 10 day hikes in America. The 5.5 mile Breakneck Ridge trail rises 1,250 feet in only a ? mile stretch. Please note that camping and use of fire are prohibited throughout the park.

For visitors who wish to view the scenic park from the water, kayaks and canoes are available for rental at Annsville Creek Paddlesport Center in Cortlandt Manor.
