Walking Tour of Manhattan From North to South

Alex and I hiked (most of) Manhattan yesterday from Dykman Street Station (the 1 Train) all the way to Columbus Circle.

It was a really long walk.

We mostly followed Broadway and walked south, but there were lots of cool historical monuments and historical spots to see. We clocked about 10 miles, with a lot of zigging and zagging. 

Broadway is the longest road in Manhattan. It’s a total of 13.3 miles from north to south.

We did not walk all the way south, because it was getting dark and we spend so much time in the southern part of Manhattan, that we didn’t really find it necessary to go further than Columbus Circle by foot.

It was a tough walk, with lots of hills. This walk is definitely not for the faint of heart or feet, but I really enjoyed it. I’d love to do it again and see more of the city that doesn’t get a ton of love and attention.

Next time we do it, we’re going to start at Columbia University and walk south from there.

Here are the spots we passed along the way:
