Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Long Island City do Weehawken

Spin from Long Island City’s waterfront (Gantry Plaza/PS1 territory) to Weehawken with big-skyline vibes the whole way. Roll out through LIC bike lanes to the Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge, hop into Midtown, then cut west to the Hudson River Greenway. From there it’s a long, breezy, mostly car-free cruise north along the Hudson to the George Washington Bridge.

Cross the GWB’s bike path into Fort Lee, then drop into New Jersey on River Road toward Edgewater and along the Hudson to Weehawken’s waterfront. Finish by the ferry piers or climb to Hamilton Park for that classic Manhattan panorama. Expect about 49 km with roughly 445 m of climbing; the Palisades give you the biggest punch, but the max elevation tops out around 90 m. Surfaces are mostly paved/asphalt, and a lot of the ride uses cycleways and quiet roads.

Notes:

• The GWB path can be narrow and busy; check which side is open before you go.
• River Road has traffic—ride single file and use lights. Fun fact: Weehawken’s bluff is the site of the 1804 Hamilton–Burr duel, and LIC’s arts scene centers around MoMA PS1 and the iconic Pepsi-Cola sign.
