Walk over George Washington Bridge. Then saunter through the Fort Lee Historic Park. Pass the community of Burdette’s Landing. Walk down to the shore trail where we find the poetry benches Continue on the path under the GWB for lunch at Ross Dock. (Don’t forget to bring your own). Then, do the Carpenter’s Trail, a spectacular 320’ walk up to the Long Path. This can be strenuous, especially in hot weather. Go north on the Long Path, with great views of Hudson, to the Dyckman Hill Trail. Down again, 340’ this time to the Englewood Boat Basin. Then take the Shore Trail South and go up the Carpenter’s Trail a second time. If I am not too tired I will walk back over the bridge or take the jitney instead. Bring lunch, snack, at least 2 liters of drink and appropriate footwear for woods and rocky trails. Extreme heat may alter the route.
