What is The Concrete Hiker?
Welcome to my blog! The Concrete Hiker is where I’ll share my adventures and helpful tips for fellow urban-dwellers in New York City. I want others to be informed of the many options to escape the city and enjoy nature. Anyone and everyone from Harlem to Coney Island is invited to ask questions and poke around to find helpful information.
Interested in camping, day hikes, or cycling adventures? Not sure where to start? Shoot me a question or start here with A Day Hiker Packing List to get your gear ready to go.
As busy ambitious New Yorkers, we could all use a break from time to time. I hope this blog will encourage you to try a new adventure, jump on a train upstate, or grab a bus to New Jersey to experience the world beyond the five boroughs.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope to hear from you soon!

Happy trails!
