Polish Girl Club brings its meetups to Randall's Island for a hot girl walk, the TikTok-born trend of a long walk built around gratitude, goals and confidence. The club is a community where Polish women in the U.S. make friends and reconnect with their culture, and its events have spread from Chicago to cities like New York. If you're a Polish woman in NYC looking for your people, this is an easy first meetup.
What to expect
The group gathers at the East River Picnic Area and sets off on the island's flat waterfront paths under the RFK Bridge viaducts. Expect an easy, social pace with plenty of conversation and photo stops. It's a meetup, not a race, so the point is making friends, not logging miles.
Good to know
- Getting there: take the 4/5/6 to 125th St and the M35 bus, or walk over the 103rd St footbridge from East Harlem.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water; there's little shade on parts of the waterfront.
- The club's events are for Polish women, so RSVP through Polish Girl Club's platform or Instagram first.
- The paths are flat and paved, so the walk suits most fitness levels.
