Hidden gems in the United States.

Not far from New York City: a reservoir bridge almost nobody uses, a dam you can walk across, a quiet stretch of Hudson beach, and a waterfall on a bend of Maryland's Gunpowder River.

Vistahidden

Gate House Bridge

Viewpoint · Croton Reservoir

Bridge across the Croton Reservoir that is used by almost nobody. Great spot to drive across, or to stop and take in the scenery - beautiful at sunset. Recommend driving on the roads south of the bridge, which are also very scenic.

Vistawander

Croton Gorge

Viewpoint · Croton-on-Hudson

Massive stone dam, with bridge you can walk across on top, where you get a great view of the Croton Reservoir and waterfalls crashing down below. There’s also a park at the bottom.

Vistawander

East River Overlook

Viewpoint · New York

A nice view of the East River and perfect place to chill with some friends

Tides · Vistahidden

Croton Point Park Beach

Beach · Croton-on-Hudson

A beautiful beach on the Hudson. There’s the main beach with the buoys, but I recommend the walking down the beach to the right, where it gets wilder and empty. Accessible by land or by boat. Beautiful for sunset, but be aware the park closes at dusk. Parking sometimes is charged for $5.

Plunge · Wildlost

Staircase Falls

Waterfall · Hereford

Peaceful falls by a bend of the Gunpowder River. Nice spot to relax and listen to nature.
