TNC to Park HQ (4 Miles Each Way)
From the Tenafly Nature Center (TNC) parking lot follow the main trail (an extension of Hudson Avenue) east just about to the end where it meets up with Route 9W. About 20 yards from the end enter the red-blazed Little Chism Trail on the right. Follow the Little Chism Trail for about 1/2 mile until you come across a sign pointing to the left for The Long Path and Greenbrook Sanctuary. A very short orange and red-blazed spur spills you onto the shoulder of Route 9W. Cross 9W to the entrance road to Greenbrook Sanctuary and follow it under the Palisades Interstate Parkway (PIP) and then enter the Long Path via the short stairs on the left. Follow the aqua-blazed Long Path north for close to 3 miles until it merges with the Alpine Approach Road just south of the Park Headquarters and then follow the road up to the circular driveway in front of the headquarters building.
Just inside the entrance doors is an indoor water fountain and rest rooms that are always open.
Return the same way.
If you want to avoid the 1/4 mile of gravel road on the main trail and add a bit to the run then from the start follow the Main Trail until just beyond the pond and then turn left onto the White Trail. At a T-intersection go left onto the red and white-blazed Bishoff Trail. Follow the Bishoff Trail until it crosses the gravel road where it becomes the red-blazed Little Chism Trail. Continue as per above.
