Handicapped accessible sidewalk provides access from a small parking area to a scenic overlook of the Hudson River and of the cave area. There is not a direct stairway from the Rt 9, Main Street bridge down to the overlook. Access is via River Street at the south end of the bridge, west side. Take River Street west a short distance, follow the signs to an access road leading to the parking area under the bridge. The new, circular overlook has interpretive panels and benches.
