Tips

This is the largest freshwater lake in the Bronx.

AeroPetr ✈🌍

Small lake, not as overgrown as the other lakes in the area. There is a fine restaurant on the shore. Visiting in cycling gear will not go down well...

This path is super beautiful and away from the cars. It is probably the best bike path in the Bronx. It will take you to the Empire State Trail and you can go all the way to Canada.
