Cycle around Central Park

As most flights departing from NY to Europe leave in the late afternoon or evening, exploring Central Park is a great way of spending your last morning in a true New York and relaxing way. We decided to rent some bikes with Bike Rent NYC, which has a located right next to the park. Do take into account that you'll still have to do quite some walking as some trails are only accessible by foot. The bike just allows you to see the most of this huge park. Some of the highlights in the park you can't miss are: Umpire Rock, the Bow Bridge, The Mall, Bethesda Fountain and Loeb Boathouse. Tip: if you ever have the chance to visit during fall, do so! I've never before seen such bright leaf colors as here.
