Nyack Beach State Park is a 61-acre (0.25 km2) state park[1] in Upper Nyack, Rockland County, New York. It consists of a small parking lot and a riverfront pathway,[3] the southernmost section of the Hudson River Valley Greenway. It is known for its physical proximity to the Hudson River on one side of the pathway and the looming cliffs of the Palisades rising 700 feet (210 m) above on the other side.[4]
The park is included within the Palisades Interstate Park system[5] and is functionally part of a continuous complex of parks that also includes Rockland Lake State Park, Hook Mountain State Park, and Haverstraw Beach State Park.[6]
