Excellent views

The Walkway Over the Hudson, also known as the Poughkeepsie Bridge, is a steel cantilever bridge spanning the Hudson River between Poughkeepsie and Highland. Originally it was built as a railroad bridge in 1889, then closed in 1974 due to fire damage and later reopened as a pedestrian walkway in 2009. It connects the Hudson Valley Rail Trail with the Dutchess Rail Trail and is part of the Empire State Trail. Stretching 6,768 feet, it was the world’s longest pedestrian footbridge until 2016. The bridge is free to access and welcomes cyclists as well as foot traffic.

The Dutchess Rail Trail is a 13 mile traffic free path. It is built on an abandoned railway line. The trail runs from Hopewell Junction to the Walkway Over the Hudson in the City of Poughkeepsie

Johnson Iorio Memorial Park plays host to a couple picnic tables, a Vietnam War memorial, and awesome views out over the Hudson River. There is easy access to the Mid-Hudson Bridge from here.
