Nyack Beach State Park, Riverside state park in Upper Nyack, United States
The park extends over 61 acres along the Hudson River, with water on one side and 700-foot Palisades cliffs on the other side.
Established in 1911, this park protected the land from quarrying activities that affected neighboring areas during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The park received National Natural Landmark status in 1980 for its geological features, including sections of the Palisades Sill formation.
Visitors can engage in hiking, bicycling, fishing, and cross-country skiing on the two-mile flat pathway that connects to Rockland Lake State Park.
Scientists have discovered fossils and dinosaur footprints in the rocks near the pathway, revealing the location's prehistoric connections.
