truly a magical escape right in the heart of New York City

#hikingtrails Tucked into the wild rhythm of Manhattan, Central Park is where the city breathes. Whether you’re strolling through the tree-lined paths or catching a saxophonist playing beneath the Bethesda Terrace, Central Park has a way of making you feel like you’ve stepped into a movie scene. There’s park security and police presence, which makes even solo walks in the evening feel comfortable. I love having picnics with friends on the lawns, some open from 9 AM, others from 11 and just soaking in the beauty of it all.
