Cool hidden easy but challenging short trail with beautiful medium size water waterfall as the prize. Fun for all ages and if you walk the other direction there is a cool bridge that is alongside the old hat factory.

Beautiful easy walk. Although one side of the loop is completely closed off due to over grown trees.

Used the trail for an easy hike with some friends. It was perfect for all the people in our group. We liked the easy access to the beach along the Hudson. The changing leaves were a nice backdrop - even on an overcast (and slightly rainy day).From the parking lot, face the creek and walk to the left for access to the waterfall.

This is a beautiful little local park that has a lot to offer. Theres waterfalls, walking trails, fishing access, boardwalks, crumbling ruins of old factories, trains...the list could go on and on. If you want you can access Dennings Point, Long Dock and Riverfront Park via connector trails.

Nice little park that has a walkway and some waterfalls. Many people come to walk their dogs at this park. There is a very sketchy rundown building with graffiti on it but its all boarded up and you are not allowed to enter. This park is probably nicer in the fall or spring when all the foliage colors come out.

Very quiet, out of the way, park. Several benches in the shade, a boardwalk that goes along the creek and an abandoned factory and a few great places to view the Falls. Enjoy!

Beautiful, easy walk that runs alongside a waterfall, the Fishkill creek and a marsh overlook. Great for picture taking. The trail connects to Dennings Point and along the Hudson to Long Dock Park if you want a longer hike.

Nice trail that takes you from a gravel road to walking across a metal grate bridge and along a cement wall for some exploration not typical of most trails. Not a long hike.

It is an old industrial complex near a waterfall. The industrial buildings are fenced off unfortunately but it is clean although there is not much to do.

Review №43

A scenic and historic stroll along the Fishkill River makes for quick walk. You can access Long Dock Park on foot by walking the scenic trails, or just sit and enjoy the waterfall.

I started going to Madam Brett Park back in 2010.I’m a photographer in this place was magical.I have so many pictures and fond memories of this park hidden away in the Beacon NY area.As usual nothing last forever and The contractors have descended on it like vultures and are changing it for high income housing.What a shame.

My sister and I went there. I used to go there all the time when I was a teenager. Its the most quiet, and serene place to be. Litter bugs stay away, lets not destroy whats left of nature.

Very nice park. Great waterfall and views of the Hudson River. Dont hesitate to explore the trails. They can be a bit adventurous. In some areas you will find yourself walking narrow beams to get access to parts of the park. Not a lot of parking so be aware.

Quaint little out of the way park with a short walk to a little water fall. The path down to the waters edge near the falls still needs to be cleared of fallen trees.
