The Foliage Ride

The Foliage Ride swaps skyscrapers for scarlet maples on an October escape that spends more than half its miles beneath blazing autumn canopy along the Empire State Trail, Old Croton Aqueduct, and Bronx River Greenway to name a few. Two extended refreshment stops and several quick breathers turn this long, linear-park route into a therapeutic roll through peak fall color—your perfect day to let the concrete jungle fade into leafy serenity.
