Hike New York City's Highline trail and Central Park

Spend the day hiking and sightseeing in New York City. The plan is to spend the day hiking on the Highline trail which is an old elevated rail bed that has been turned into a urban trail and then spend time hiking in Central park. In the event of heavy rain on the planned day plans may be modified to instead tour museums and other inside attractions. We will take the Transbridge bus from the Rt33 park and ride lot. You can Take Transbridge from other locations however some of those buses do not stop at Rt33 so you may be on a different bus than us, but we can meet at the port authority in NYC. You will need to purchase your bus ticket ahead of time and you will need cash to purchase subway tickets for our shuttle to the start of the Highline trail. You can join us for part of the hike however once you leave the group you are on your own.
