About
Walkway over the Hudson, (Entrance on Parker Ave in Poughkeepsie), ☎ +1 845 454 9649. Open from 7 a.m. to sunset 7 days a week. Dogs Allowed, Handicap Accessible. The Bridge connects Poughkeepsie to Highland and it has a long history; it was built in 1888 as a railroad bridge, and it caught fire in 1974 and was too expensive to tear down. Today it is the largest pedestrian park in the world. Being 212 feet over the Hudson River it gives you a great view of the sunset and the skyline of Poughkeepsie and Highland.
