Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The Hoboken walkway along the Hudson River has it all: Spectacular Manhattan views, great opportunities for people watching, and many bars and restaurants nearby. This is a great way to spend some time on a nice day.

Lovely place to take photos of the Manhattan skyline and sit for awhile. If it's a nice day and you're up for a long walk, you can do the entire Hoboken waterfront or Hoboken + Jersey City. This is a fabulous summer weekend evening activity and up here, you can pop over to Washington St in Hoboken to get food/drinks.

First time visitor to the area and fully enjoyed this waterfront walkway. Great views and it was clean and peaceful both early morning and evening. This was a good choice.

Always nice to be able to see great views, be near the water, and have a few options of activities. There is a park area so you can picnic or just sit, restaurants to eat at, and a nice walkway to stroll down. Went here on a date, and it was wonderful for all those reasons. Saw some ducks too. Bring a sweater in warmer weather, since it of course gets a bit chilly due to being so close to the water.

Nothing is ever enough. Perfectly taken care of, plenty of space for so many people going in and about. Safe, pretty, charming, just great all around!!!!
Try it in the morning right before sunset, and watch the sun come up, and then come back to watch the sunset. Lots of green space for you to sit and relax after a nice workout, or just a casual stroll. It is so inviting, you can't stay away. If you head north, you can go all the way up to Weehawken, and that will give you about 2 more miles, and then head back and go south all the way down to Jersey City... what a great trail!!! Plenty to see along the way, food trucks, the New York Skyline, ducks.... Absolutely lovely!

Throughout a Saturday in July, I walked with two (2) friends along the Hoboken waterfront. There were many pedestrians and bicyclists. Also, there were many places to sit down and admire the views of Manhattan. This area was safe and well-maintained. The train station was also right next to this long walkway.

Nice to stroll along the waterfront walkway with great views of NYC. Park in a garage a few blocks away to save a little on parking cost.

As a native New Yorker I still get the very big vibe every time I see our skyline.
Whenever I’m visiting Hoboken I always take the walk back vis the walkway. It’s a feel good for sure!

Amazing view of the city. I love to go to Hoboken, there are always a lot of things to do, tons of little shops as bakeries and delis. I enjoy going for a walk and just sit there and watch the view of Manhattan. A nice and well spend afternoon

How's the parking in the area?

Not the best, it’s NJ and NY . You can find parking but it could take you a while and far from this place. I recommend to take the subway
What are the hours that I can walk? I wanted to go late at night

Hi
It depends what you want to do. I think in total start to finish about 11 miles. We walked from Hoboken Pier 14 to Liberty State Park, you need to get a very short ferry ride to do the last bit. It was about 5 miles great views of Manhattan. Make sure sure detour of the shore path in Hoboken to get a cake in Carlos Bakery.
Hudson River front org is a good website, I cannot put a weblink on here but you can get the drift

Hi, if you go from Jersey City, all the way to Hoboken it can take about 40min! Amazing, beautiful walk, with breathtaking view of NYC! Worth every second!

I would do it and see what happens but check the posted rules for the park first to see if it prohibited. Another thought, go when it isn't busy.

Is this park 24/7? Some places it's mentioned 24/7 and some say it closes at 4PM? How can it be accessed after hours?

I don't recall seeing any signs, however unless you are with a group safety first. Usually there are closing times.

Around half a mile.You can see the waterfront as you exit the station.Its by far the best way to explore the area and the wide variety of restaurants nearby.
Also, is there a fee to get in the park?

Where do you park?

Parking in a city is always an issue. Visitors can park on one side of the street so you need to read signs carefully. To park free park on the west side of town and there are usually many open spaces. This will leave you a six or seven block walk. Alternatively there are a number of garages and metered parking near the water front
