This was kind of the first thing I did in NYC and I wasn't expecting much, because I'd never heard of it, but it blew me away with the concept; an old above ground train line had been completely changed into a park with wonderful views and a few street vendors. It's 1.4 miles from end to end, so including walking from the subway, it's a good way to get 3 miles.
My favorite vantage point for an impressive view of the surroundings of New York City. What more could an abandoned railway line become but a sightseeing park. You'll literally feel like you are walking on cars to get to your destination. Skyline pictures from here are stunning.
The High Line is a phenomenal place to visit on a gorgeous day. Stretching from the Meatpacking District to Hudson Yards, walking the High Line is both fun and really cool. There is art along the way, including statues and murals, as well as awesome views of the west side.
I recommend picking one direction and walking the whole thing on a sunny day.
Great place to take a stroll with friends. Lots of interesting architecture--much of it contemporary--along the route. Lots of young couples, some with strollers.
Multiple opportunities to sit down and rest.
Multiple exit opportunities along the route, one or two of which have elevators.
Wheelchair-accessible.
Bathrooms at both ends of route.
The high line is a really interesting and fun walk on the West Side of NYC. As an avid train fan I find it fascinating that the walk used to be train tracks. As show in the photos, in various parts along the walk you can see some of the abandoned train tracks. The walk is very clean and the staff is really nice. Make sure to make a reservation in advance if going on the weekends. Overall a great spot to check out if visiting or if you have lived in NYC all your life.
