They also have the Lambert Castle that you can visit, though that costs money. (The tower is open for free admission though!) My favorite part of this place besides the tower is probably the overlook they have of the buildings in Patterson. Very cool!

It was warm and I'd much rather skip a spinning class to take in nature instead. There were families, dog walkers, joggers and bikers all enjoying spring. Quite a few deer were wondering around. Plenty of birds, most notably very large redheaded woodpecker making a terrible racket. Just kidding, I really enjoyed watching him poke for bugs. This park is a long stretch of greenway following both sides of a creek. There are mile markers that take you through different towns. I think I only did about a mile and a half of it, but I'm looking forward to coming back now that it's warmer, and exploring the different bridges and trails.

One of them is used for soccer and there's also a tennis court. I saw some weird court that had some structures on it that I have no idea what it's used for. There's a pavilion and a jungle gym for kids as well. There's a bike trail if you don't mind riding up hill, you will be rewarded on the way down when it's time to leave and get to ride down. There's a trail in the surrounding woods as well. On one side, there's a view into the quarry and on the other side a view of the city. And if you're at the park and we get invaded, no worries there is a tank occupying the high grounds as well.

Always wondered where people got those super close views of the George Washington Bridge in their…read morereels, and finally found this place! People might get confused by the two names--Palisades Interstate Park and Fort Lee Historic Park--but it's the same location. Parking is metered, and the rates vary by day. On weekends, it's around $2.50/hour. We spent almost 2 hours here, and it was totally worth it. The park is very clean and well maintained. There are several viewpoints where you can enjoy beautiful views of the George Washington Bridge and the Hudson River. There are also a few historical displays that tell the story of the area, which makes the visit even more interesting. There are plenty of benches to sit, relax, and enjoy the scenery. It was peaceful and not too crowded when we visited. On the other side of the park, you'll find old cannons, restored military buildings, and other historic structures from the Revolutionary War period. The views from that side are just as amazing. Overall, it's a great place to spend a couple of hours if you're visiting the Palisades.

It is also a regular stop for an ice cream truck so be prepared to buy ice cream. A really nice park to enjoy with kids.

My daughters love coming here and hanging out for the day. When we are done with this section you can go for a nice walk along the paths located in the park. Park has a bathroom and water fountain for kids that is kept pretty clean. An ice cream truck does stop by regularly but unfortunately it's not Mr Softee and only specializes in ice creams bars. If your looking for a nice place to sit back relax and watch your kids play I recommend stopping by. If you're hungry stop by Louis Place Pizzeria for a slice, which is only to blocks away

Interesting thing about this park is that it was once a landfill. Awesome to see it has been reclaimed. This is a great place to go to see the meadowlands shine. On top of the trails, there are various educational opportunities offered here, as well. The sounds of the turnpike can spoil the scenery at times, but that's isn't a huge deal. Give it a try!
