Event Type Walk/Hike Description Running parallel to the Hudson River, the Camp Smith Trail to Anthony's Nose offers spectacular views that make this strenuous hike, with its many elevation gains and losses, worth the work. The view from Anthony's Nose is as famous as its name. Fred and Connie Stern who maintain a portion of the trail and are members of the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference will lead the hike. Bring lunch/water/windbreaker in day pack. From east side of Bear Mountain Bridge, go north on Rte 9D and park on the river side just north of the bridge.
