Summary: A gift for all New Yorkers
Comment: I've lived in New York City for ten years, and just when I thought I'd done/seen it all, along comes this great book! I just completed my first hike outlined in "Take a Hike: New York City" yesterday (in the Ramapo Mountains of New Jersey) and I'm hooked. I carried the guide with me and - being a novice hiker - found that all the detail was perfect and wise. And it's smartly written as well with a bit of humor! I might last another ten years in New York now that I've been introduced to another facet of the city I call home.

All hikes within the guide take less than two hours to reach by car, with details on public transportation options and clear directions on how to reach each trailhead.

Let Skip show you all the worthwhile hikes, from short, flat routes suitable for families to day-long, steep treks for more advanced hikes. Hike profiles contain practical information including point-by-point trail navigation, facilities, fees, parking instructions, and an easy-to-use map for each trail. Moon Take a Hike New York City covers trails within the city and parts of Long Island, New Jersey, the Shawangunks and Hudson Valley, and explores the Appalachian Trail.
