I love the different amenities around this section of the park. It’s always such a beautiful area to hangout in, the views are cinematic

Beautiful park for any weather! Big hills for sled after the snow! Perfect place to run under the highway, along Hudson River. So many people walking their dog, picnic in the summer, and beautiful sunset with New Jersey in the background. Also the easiest and fastest way to bike to downtown without a stop! If you have small children, there’s many play grounds too! They’re consistently renovating, opening more and more space!

Love this part of the park where there is benches and beer garden and bathroom after a run

This park has been evolving and improved over the recent years. Great place for families, working out, strolling along the Hudson or just relaxing. Hard to find parking, but an easy walk from the 66th Street Lincoln Center Station.

Pier "i" Cafe on the river is wonderful. Walking along the river especially with a sunset is calming , and again, wonderful experience. Many people bike, jog, walk dogs and bring children and occasionally Rollerblade along this amazing waterfront park. Personally I meditate regularly in Riverside Park.

A beautiful park. It's a great place for a afternoon or evening stroll. Every so often it opens up to a beautiful view of the river. It's also broken up by nice little garden arrangements and playgrounds. Best of all, you see almost no tourists.

Don’t know where this actual location Riverside park south is actually but Riverside south of the tennis courts is awesome to me…

A wonderful riverside park with winding paths, lots of chairs and lounging areas to picnic or simply enjoy people watching and gorgeous views of the Hudson, not crowded and with plenty of greenery. A lovely and easily accessible place to get away from the hustle of the city.

I visit this place very much often with my boyfriend. This is a really really great place to just relax and get intouch with nature. There are all kinds of trees, birds, bugs, ducks, frogs and turtles. The ducks, frogs and turtles also sometimes come out of the water. There is also an incredibly long bike lane that goes along the Hudson River and it's part of the park. The very best part is for new Yorkers it makes you appreciate the beauty of the city, especially at night when the city is all lit up. It would be a beautiful view for tourists also. In all, I definitely recommend this spot for beautiful sight seeing in NYC.

Perfect for walking, sunbathing, riding a bike, it also has green areas where you can have picnics and have a nice time with your family or friends

One of my favorite parks in the city. There is a walking/running path in addition to places to just sit on the grass or seats eat!

Lovely views on a clean, neat and well-maintained park. Lots of paths and very safe. Easy access from West 66th Street.

Beautiful views and you get to pet a lot of the friendly dogs🙂 The Pier I Cafe is great to grab some lunch and drinks, be a people watcher and chill. Love it. Food is great.

Best part about living in the upper west side. A long narrow park that hugs the river, great for walks, or biking, or picnics. With nice playgrounds for kids, beautiful tree and river views, and pier I nearby for great riverfront casual dining.

Nice park with ample seating and good views of the river. Unfortunately, the traffic noise was too much for me. If your not bothered by the decibel level of the West Side highway, you will probably like it.

Troglodyte oasis.

Beautiful park along the Hudson River from 59th Street to 72nd Street with swings, volleyball courts, sunning areas, dog parks. Featured in my book, New York City Scavenger: The Ultimate Search for New York City's Hidden Treasures.

My backyard, absolutely love this park. Beats battery park all day.

Quite a clean park. Kid friendly, dog friendly. View along the river are gorgeous. The pathways can get a little crowded on a nice day, but still worth the visit. Some parts of the grassy areas can be covered in dog or geese poop in case you’re looking to picnic.

Great place but needs bigger gates on the outside feel like a dog can jump right over the gate

The park is beautiful and has many different plantings. A lovely place for a walk. Families and friends seem to the vibe.

Really nice location for a run. Pretty busy in the evenings with mostly runners and walkers. Really enjoyed there being a lack of the typical New York street vendors and sketchy people. Only saw one restroom in a 30 minutes walk.

One of my favorite places to go walking in the city! Especially beautiful at sunrise or sunset. Perfect spot in the summer to enjoy a picnic too! Tons of paths to explore, always leading you to something new. Definitely worth checking it out! 10/10.

Well managed, clean, and safe. Beautiful views.

Walking out on the pier at sunset offers spectacular views in all directions! It's especially beautiful on a late summer evening with a warm breeze. Before our walk to the end of the pier, we sat at one of the picnic tables and ordered drinks from Pier 1 Cafe. Great spot for relaxing, enjoying the sunshine and people-watching.

Such a nice, new, well-maintained, clean park. I hope it will stay that way, as they complete the final phase of the multi-part expansion!

Peaceful, spacious, pristine...and oh that coveted waterfront location! Riverside Park is such a category of one. The variety of walking paths, bikeways, piers, performance space, and fitness spaces. There is no better place to see the sunset. What a gift for all of us here in NYC.

NYC is know to have great access to green space, this park is great for walking, biking and playing in the grassy areas. Clean, modern and well lighted. Be sure and check out the food options available.

Beautiful park when you need a break from the Central Park crowds. Rush hour gets hectic with commuters zooming along the bike lanes.

Awesome vibe, chillin’ , friendly people with their kids or dogs - great to visit and picnic or just enjoy a bit of slowness in the fast-paced city!

This is the most beautiful spot for families with children of all ages . Springlers, nini lazy river ,restaurants, playground ,and wind down with a movie on the lawn during the summer . Just chill on the many benches or spread your blanket .

Beautiful, peaceful, elegant and overall fabulous! Perfect for A DATE!! nice summer restaurant, amazing views, perfect to Wal hand on hand or to stroll along the river. Clean bathrooms!!! M/W BATHROOM. This place is SOOOO romantic! I love visiting there. !!

I love the place Pier one is my hangout. I go fishing just about every day I'm retired now.

Kid friendly but designed to keep skateboarders out.

A favorite walk, both for exercise and people watching, is to walk south in Riverside Park along the river to 59th street. The return trip is the western path through the apartments until 79tg street. One must be aware of runners, cyclists and scooter riders, but you have the river to gaze upon, and limited traffic noise.

Very nice park. Quite peaceful, lovely park to relax in.

Setting is nice and cozy especially if your with that special someone

Beautiful sunset

Great place to get lost.

A beautiful place to take a walk, go for a run or an exercise. I love this place any time of the year.

Great place to get away from the crowded landmarks of the city. Not to far from time square 42nd street. If you like to walk this is a beautiful area for that and more.

Very nice little park.

Nice fir a walk

The park renovations are completed and it is thoughtfully designed!

Good

Great views and dog runs 🐾

Awesome new facilities. For families, young kids especially. Tons of swings and climbing areas. Two small dogs play areas one for large dogs and another for smaller pooches. Beach sand volleyball area too. Plenty of open space and seating for outdoor dining or just hanging out.

Nice

Best expensive park with amazing views

Get some fresh air on the Hudson River side...

Beautiful place for exercise and relax!

Great improvements over the years. Very nice! A few more projects are in the works.

Its very easy to find and it has many levels of different activities the kids playground at the top and the pier's at the bottom overlooking the Hudson and our Neighbors New Jersey.

One of the most beautiful places to relax on summertime.

Great area to walk, relax and enjoy tje Hudson River.

Great place to relax and catch the sunset.

GREAT PLACE TO SHARE A PICNIC AND WATCH THE SUNSET. IT IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SETUP AND SO ACCESSIBLE. NICE WEATHER AND A GREAT SUNSET WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY TO SPEND IT DURING covid19

Beautiful sunset and setting. And amazing view of the Hudson River for the labor day weekend. Riverside park south seemed to be less known than central park but alot quieter and more peaceful.

Smells bad cause if the river but still a great place to skate or bike

Several famous movies where shot here. Great park and background for pics.

Peaceful, clean, quiet and beautiful sunsets.

The river smells like garage sometimes but it's still very beautiful

It kinda smelled weird but it was a nice place to skateboard and only a few cars passed it wasn't a lot of people either.

Love it place 😍

Nice sunset views

lovely

A gem of a park!

Nice view of the water

Great!

Beautiful day, the park is amazing.Can't wait to go back.

(Translated by Google) one of my favorite places, I love to read a good book and enjoy a good company, great I recommend it. (Original) uno de mis Lugares favoritos, me encanta para leer un buen libro y disfrutar de una buena compañia, genial se los recomiendo.😊

Good for families to take kids and unwind.

Peaceful
