It all started as an exercise in mastering Final Cut Pro, the video editing software. Shoot some video in a neighborhood park, and learn how to splice it together, using filters and other motion effects. What came out is a tiny glimpse into Inwood Hill Park.
Nestled on the northern tip of Manhattan, Inwood Hill Park is made up of almost 200 acres that include caves and ridges, a forest and a salt marsh – in fact, the last natural one in Manhattan -- according to the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation website. And check out this bit on glaciers that once covered the park.
Other amenities include trails to hike and bike on, athletic fields, playgrounds and dog runs. And as you’ll see on the video below, weekly free yoga classes by Bread and Yoga in the summer. (Note: The last class was Aug. 31, but hopefully next summer will bring another series of classes.)
Inwood Hill Park extends north of Dyckman Street along the Hudson River. If you go, you can get there on the 1 train to 215th Street or the A train to 207th Street.
