October 17, 2026 · 11 AM
State Line Lookout, Exit 3 Palisades Parkway North, Alpine
Group hike/walk event described as a “Giant Stairs/Long Path Loop” (rescheduled; meetup instructions via comments).
New update (8/12)...they haven't changed the website in a while. It looks like there is no opening date in site. Happy trails until we meet up!!! I will post it anew when I actually get a date for you to sign up for as this list is so old it may not be accurate anymore. Pray they reopen it. Major rock slide...yikes. **Update!! New people please post a comment that you will be attending before the Friday evening before the hike. Thanks!!!** Here is a very cool hike, a wonderful scramble, a hike that is for the experienced hikers/scramblers only. There is a mile of rocky adventure which is not for beginners or those with improper footwear. So....experienced with me hikers only please. If I have not hiked/scrambled with you please send me a private note with your recent scrambling experience. If you don't you will be removed from the event. It is billed as 4 hours, 4.5 miles, STRENUOUS by NYNJTC. This is one of my favorites. There is significant continuous ascent and decent involved. Feel free to contact me if you are wondering if you are good to do this if you have hiked with me. NO DOGS. No guests. From their description: This loop hike descends the Palisades cliffs, follows a challenging, rocky path along the Hudson River, passes a scenic waterfall, and climbs to reach a panoramic viewpoint over the river. Scrambling is tricky stuff and sure footing is necessary for this. Please don't sign up if you've never hiked or scrambled before.
Nothing similar coming up.
