Walk Central Park and the High Line

New York's green spaces are among its greatest free pleasures. Central Park is a vast oasis in the middle of Manhattan, perfect for wandering past its lakes, bridges and lawns, with Bow Bridge and Bethesda Terrace as highlights. Downtown, the High Line is an elevated park built on a disused railway, threading through the city with gardens, art, and skyline views. Both cost nothing and offer a different, calmer side of the city. We'll suggest the best routes through each and how to combine the High Line with the nearby Chelsea Market and Hudson Yards.
