What is the terrain like in Downtown Ridgefield Park (Downtown)?
Ridgefield has some gentle hills that are ideal for every fitness level. Not everyone wants a workout when they take their furry companion out for a walk. In some cases, a stroll down Main Street to do a bit of window shopping is just what the doctor ordered. If this describes you, then you will love the clean sidewalks along the downtown corridor. If you hope to use your walks to exercise, it's time to be a bit more adventurous and take advantage of the hills in the neighborhood. Head out of the main downtown area and explore some of the residential spaces of the community.
As you leave Main Street, a lot of the sidewalks have trees for shade and grass for your pup to explore. The more time you spend exploring, the easier it will be to choose routes that offer the most greenery and shade for summer time walking.

Not only is it a fair distance from downtown Ridgefield, but you must take Emerson St. to the south to get over the turnpike and then head back up north to the park.
