One of Fresh Meadow's hidden gems . Tucked away on 164th street , this enormous park is stroller, runner, bicyclist, children and elderly friendly . One of my local safe havens for great writing.
Beautiful lake , great for walking, exercising and relaxing.
Just moved two blocks away from this amazing park . Great park for running, calisthenics, people watching , and just sitting and relaxing.
1 lap around the outer-street perimeter of the park is about 2 miles. It features 2 hills , one that goes up 70 ft. Don't cut corners! 1 lap around the lake is half a mile. Happy running!
Fall Foliage : Take a walk by Kissena Lake , and take time to sit and admire the changing leaves this season, in this 237-acre park .
Peaceful , and great for running laps or taking a walk.
Just walk and take in the scenery any weather anywhere. Its the most beautiful park in Queens.
Huge and nice place to run or to simply enjoy the fresh air
