Please join us for a walk on Saturday 11/14 in Staten Island (SI). It will be an approximately 3 hour, 5 mile walk. We will walk from from Fort Wadsworth along the shoreline, boardwalk and streets to Lee’s Tavern in Dongan Hills.
The caminito will begin at Narrows Rd.and Fingerboard Rd. in SI. The advisable way to get there from Manhattan is to take the SIM1C express bus on the corner of Rector St. and Broadway. Meet there at 11am and we will take the first bus after 11, and getting off at the first stop on SI arriving 20 min. later (cost is $7.50 on the OMNY card)
If you are driving or coming from Brooklyn please contact Tom Coca at 646-734-2239 as to how to get to the SI meeting point. We will end at Lee’s Tavern for an optional late lunch. At Lee’s Tavern you can take the SI railway across the street to the ferry terminal in St. George for the ferry back to Manhattan, or take a short walk to the SIM1C bus stop back to Manhattan. Bring water and bathrooms are along the way. Your hike leader is Tom Coca who has not walked a camino but plans to.
