    We just stopped by and it is so beautiful. Everybody's having a lot of fun. The Skywalk at Corning…read morepreserve is really beautiful. The only thing is they really need to do is put lines in the parking lot. Turns out you can't put videos on this and all my really cool pictures of the Corning preserve were videos. It's really a fun drive it's really nice calm pretty you can smell the fresh air in the river. There's lots of food places downtown to try. It's a nice little day trip.

    It is hard to believe that this place doesn't already have a review on Yelp. Also known as the…read more"Corning City Preserve," this park located between I-787 and the Hudson River is a long, narrow place that is perfect for walking above the water or perhaps resting and catching up with friends on one of its many benches. Located on the southern portion is an amphitheater of sorts (named "Jennings Landing") where Alive at Five concerts are held in the summer. A beautiful bridge goes over the train tracks and I-787 to connect this area with downtown Albany. There is also a couple of small ponds, a playground area for the children, and open spaces for Frisbee or picnics. The "Mohawk Hudson Hike-Bike Trail" continues north from here. I find driving into the area a little confusing as Quay Street is one-way only and you have to be heading north on I-787. I find it much easier to park at the free lots on Water Street and walk in. Just a word of caution... It can get a bit dark at night and there are some "regulars" who stay here throughout the night.

    The Helderberg-Hudson rail trail runs from the south end of Albany out to Voorheesville. The…read morebeginning of the trail in Albany, while convenient, is really not attractive. You need to get past the port before it turns quiet and tree-lined. I've only gone probably 6 miles in to the trail but there are plenty of benches to stop and rest on. It's paved, well maintained and has easily accessible access and parking lots. I saw signs for a pop up beer garden on the trail so that's definitely a plus The only issue I have is that the mile markers make no sense. The trail starts on Rt. 32 but less than 1/4 mile in the mile marker says 2 miles.

    Love this trail for so many reasons! It's wonderful for walking and riding a bike, as it's quite…read moreshady in many parts, the scenery is varied so there's always something new to look at as you go along the trail, and the people on the trail are generally very considerate of each other. As a walker and a biker, I have been on both sides and I would say that everyone really tries to follow the "rules" and watch out for each other. The only issues I have are: 1. I so wish the trail were longer! Nine miles is relatively short when you're biking. 2. While I appreciate the efforts to maintain the trail, it is a bit frustrating when there are multiple full sized trucks on the trail leaving bikes about a foot of room to pass. One week, there were trucks almost every day. 3. I wish more people would pick up after their dogs. There's quite a bit of dog poop in the 3 miles from Delmar to Albany. All and all, I have thoroughly enjoyed the trail this summer and am looking forward to the beauty that fall will likely bring!
