Join. Palisades Interstate Park in New Jersey. The Palisades Interstate Park in New Jersey follows the western shore of the Hudson River in Bergen County, New Jersey, from just south of the George Washington Bridge in Fort Lee north 12 miles to the New York state line at Rockland County, New York.

Palisades Interstate Park in New Jersey

Hudson Terrace in Fort Lee and Englewood Cliffs and U.S. Route 9W in Englewood Cliffs, Tenafly, and Alpine run along the length of the park’s western border, while the Palisades Interstate Parkway runs parallel just within that border. (See Maps.) Henry Hudson Drive and its spurs, built and maintained by the Park Commission, provide access to the park’s riverfront areas, while Hudson Terrace, Route 9W, and the Parkway provide access to areas on the summit. Commercial vehicles are not permitted in the park or on the Palisades Interstate Parkway. Because most of the park’s roadways are not on a municipal street grid, portable GPS devices do not reliably identify all park areas.

Culebra Camping

It is very civilized, this is definitely not 'wilderness camping', there are plenty of mangroves and pine trees to pitch a tent under their cooling shade or hang a hammock and relax. The camping areas are located only a few feet away from the beach. The campground is government-run, you will find the office at the entrance of the campground where you must go and register.

You will be assigned an area to pitch your tent. This rule was established recently to make it easier for the camp guards to patrol the area. For reservations contact: Autoridad de Conservación y Desarrollo de Culebra, Attn: Playa Flamenco, Apartado 217, Culebra, PR 00775. The daily rate to pitch your own tent is $20 - 6 persons maximum.

There is a small road that runs along the beach, for pedestrian and park vehicles only. Cooking on the campground is rather simple. For location go to Culebra Island Map! Farm-fresh yoga: 3 small, cheap retreats near New York City. Kripalu and Omega are the mega stores of yoga retreats.

Farm-fresh yoga: 3 small, cheap retreats near New York City

Marquee-name teachers and wellness gurus flock to these new-age Disneylands in the Berkshires and outside Rhinebeck. But there are intimate farmhouse-style getaways with fantastic yoga teachers from New York City where you won’t have to deal with cafeterias, airplane-hanger size yoga studios, or more than 20 other guests. Expect twin beds, shared baths, and rates of about $125 per night including yoga, food, and lodging. Unlike the mega retreats, these bindi-dot–size getaways don’t publish big glossy course catalogs that they leave in every NYC health-food store. So you’ll have to visit their websites and check out their clunky calendars, but it’s worth it.
