Bronx Greenway Ride via Van Cortlandt Park and Bronx River Greenway

Explore the New Bronx Greenway

This tour is perfect for NY cyclists who want to explore the beautiful greenways of the Bronx. Navigating around the Bronx greenway network isn’t easy, but with this tour, we make riding these greenways fun and simple without looking at bike map.

The tour travels up the Westside Highway Greenway, through Washington Heights, and to the Broadway Bridge. Cross that bridge into the Bronx and ride on some traditional bike lanes until we get to Van Cortlandt Park, where we pick up another long greenway that takes us all the way to the Bronx River Parkway Greenway, where we head south towards Randall’s Island. Cross the Randall’s Island Connector footbridge onto the Island, where we travel on another greenway around the Island and find the 102nd street footbridge. We ride over that bridge into Manhattan and back to 75th street.

Decipher the maze that is the new Bronx Greenway system, and learn to navigate it like a pro!
