Our Urban Park Ranger hiking guides will introduce you to the hidden gems of New York City. On our hikes, you may explore nature, discover our city’s urban forests, or just unplug from the world to clear your head. Hiking programs feature intensity levels ranging; vigorous can include long distances, with hills and rugged terrain.

As we near the Winter Solstice and the final days of fall, join us for one of our longest hikes as we explore Central Park from top to bottom. Central Park will be decorated for the holidays, so be sure to bring your camera. Pre-registration is encouraged. To register, visit nyc.gov/parks/rangers/register on Wednesday, December 2.
