Randalls Island Waterfront Walk - New Members Welcome!

New to the Appalachian Mountain Club? Looking to connect with other folks who love getting outdoors? Come meet new AMC friends on a walk around Randalls Island!

Explore the beauty of the city by walking a circuit around Randalls and Wards Islands. Enjoy the river views, bridge views, and extraordinary Manhattan and Queens skylines. My favorite experience is walking across the Salt Marshes and under the Hell Gate Bridge.

We'll walk at a leisurely pace on paved terrain for about 5 miles with little elevation gain, stopping at points of interest. Wear comfortable walking shoes and warm clothes in case a cold wind blows across the water.

If you are new to the AMC, this is a great starter event! New and existing members, as well as prospective members are welcome!!

Meet at 11:00am at the Randalls Island side of the 103rd Street pedestrian bridge. If you're coming from Manhattan, you're welcome to join the leaders at 10:30am on the Manhattan side of the 103rd Street bridge (and and Bobby Wagner Walk). Randalls Island can also be reached by pedestrian walkways along the RFK Bridge crossings, as well as the M60 SBS and M35 buses from Harlem.
