Explore three nearby winter-friendly destinations that cater to wellness all season long: Battery Park, Pier 25, and Governors Island. These iconic locations provide the perfect balance of outdoor adventure and peaceful retreats, even as temperatures drop.

Battery Park: A Scenic Haven for Crisp Winter Walks

At the southern tip of Manhattan, Battery Park transforms into a picturesque winter wonderland. Its winding pathways are ideal for brisk walks or light jogs in the crisp winter air, offering a refreshing way to stay active. The park’s harbor views of the Statue of Liberty remain breathtaking year-round, creating a serene backdrop for reflection or movement. The SeaGlass Carousel adds a touch of whimsy to winter days, inviting visitors to experience its glowing, underwater-inspired art installation that shines even brighter in the season’s softer light.

Pier 25: Stay Active with a Waterfront Winter Escape

Pier 25 offers a refreshing array of outdoor activities, even in the chill of winter. Layer up for a game of beach volleyball or enjoy the expansive spaces for yoga, stretching, or meditative moments overlooking the Hudson River. The area’s peaceful ambiance during the off-season makes it perfect for a relaxed stroll or simply soaking in the city’s skyline. If you’re looking for a fun and lighthearted activity, challenge friends or family to a round of mini golf on the pier’s lively course. It’s a great way to stay active while enjoying the fresh winter air and waterfront views. Please take note of the new Pier 25 Winter Hours.

Governors Island: A Tranquil Winter Retreat

Just a short ferry ride away, Governors Island offers a serene escape from Manhattan’s bustle. Its bike paths remain a favorite for leisurely rides in cool weather, while its open spaces are perfect for winter picnics or quiet moments of reflection. Bundle up for a guided historical tour, or take advantage of winter programming, such as art exhibits and seasonal events. After a day of outdoor activities, unwind at QC NY, a luxurious spa offering a range of rejuvenating treatments, perfect for warming up and relaxing. If the weather permits, try a paddle on the water for a chilly but refreshing workout.
