Join us for the inaugural 2026 Little Red Lite Swim Inspired by the spirit of the classic Little Red Lighthouse 10K marathon swim, a beloved event once hosted by NYC Swim, this offers a new opportunity to experience Manhattan’s iconic open-water scene, which follows a beautiful 6.4 km / 4 mi route along one of the most scenic stretches of the Hudson River. The swim begins at Inwood Canoe Club and finishes Baylander, a former U.S. Navy vessel docked at the West Harlem Piers near 125th St.
Ramble through three riverfront parks and across one big bridge at this free cross-river walking adventure and scavenger hunt. Ramblers can pick up a free paper map with walking directions and points of interest to discover at any of three staffed hubs: The Little Red Lighthouse in Fort Washington Park / The N.J. entrance to the G.W.B. North Walk and the Palisades Interstate Park Long Path / The Cottage at Fort Tryon Park. Ramblers can collect a different small keepsake and a unique rubber stamp at each park hub.
