You'll pass by the Little Red Lighthouse, the Cloisters, the incredible Hudson River Palisades, Lyndhurst Mansion, the Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse, and finally, Hook Mountain, which rises to nearly 800 feet straight up from the Hudson River with sheer cliffs, surrounded by ravens, hawks, ospreys and the occasional Bald Eagle.
