The North Woods

Central Park · Forested trail · Free

Almost no tourist makes it up here, and that's the point. Dirt singletrack, a real ravine and stream, tree cover — it's the only genuine trail running on the island. I come here when pavement gets old.

The wild, wooded north end of Central Park with real dirt trails and a stream. The closest thing to trail running in Manhattan.
