The Appalachian Trail in New York

New York's 88 miles of Appalachian Trail take the footpath surprisingly close to New York City (which can be viewed about 40 miles away from at least two viewpoints) without loosing the Trail's wilderness feel. The Trail passes through Hudson-Bear Mountain State Park and reaches a low point of 176 feet above sea level at a point between the Bear Mountain Zoo (which the Trail passes through) and the bridge over the Hudson River. The trail enters Connecticut on Shaghticoke Mountain.
