The park itself isn't much more than a parking lot, some grassy area, a gazebo, park benches, and an overgrown boat launch. But that's not what most locals come for. Is the miles-long, paved and well maintained trail along the Mohawk River, that extends East to Cohoes and West to Schenectady. The parking lot offers sufficient space and features a nice clean restroom. The trail is shared by cyclists and pedestrians, so take some precaution while walking and don't dash across the way before turning and looking. That said, most cyclists do use best practice and alert you before passing.‍ You can walk as far as you care to in either direction. In the summer months, you might do better heading West if you care to catch more glimpses of the Mohawk. There are a few spots to sit down and take a break. Also the cabin next to the parking lot doubles as an art studio some days. The river offers beautiful scenery and a diverse watershed that makes the trail a good spot for birdwatching. Enjoy the park and trail, and if you find this review helpful, please like!
Ideal for cycling or long distance walks on paved roads. But take some bug spray, especially as the climate is warming up! There are also books you can take and/or leave here in a small canopy, and thought that was awesome.
Park is a town managed bike/hike access point for the paved NYS CanalWays trail and has kayak/canoe access to the Mohawk River carry craft across mowed grass and bike trail to the dirt/mud footpath to the right of the Depot. People often bring camp chairs to picnic on the grass no grills provided. Several points with river views banks are heavily vegetated. Variety of woodland, meadow, water birds and swallows; muskrat, rabbits, turtles, frogs, non-venomous snakes. Benches along the trail. Small gazebo. Old rail station on the is used for artists in residence. Indoor public access only in non-pandemic conditions. There is often a water bowl for dogs on the porch. Public restrooms near the entrance to the lot. Free parking. Sometimes lot can fill during prime summer days. Find my review helpful? Click "like".
Very beautiful and safe place to walk and ride bikes.
It's a nice parking section of the Mohawk River. Bathrooms and beautiful benches. Awesome bike trail!
Nice quiet park on the Mohawk River. Has a bike trail, picnic tables
Took a 7 mile bike ride along the Mohawk today starting @ Lions Park. Beautiful day!
Beautiful spot to watch the Mohawk River, take a stroll and access the recreation path. No playground for kids, so look elsewhere for little ones.
Great bike/walking path, which connects to Blatnick Park, and small historic train station overlooking the Mohawk River. Adjacent parking lot.
Beautiful park and great for walks, runs, biking, rollerblading, pretty much any aerobic activity. And there at bathrooms onsite.
