Flirtation Walk (West Point)

Flirtation Walk is a historic rocky foot trail at the United States Military Academy.

The trail turns west-northwest, passing Battery Cove, where the Great Chain was anchored during the Revolutionary War.

"[1] The trail was first used during the Revolutionary War to access the Great Chain that deterred British ships navigating the turn in the river.

There is a large engraving that states "MEXICO 13,14 SEP 1847" along Howard Road leading down to North Dock.

There is also a large engraving commemorating the Battle of Saratoga on the cliffside at Kosciuszko's Garden about a quarter mile south of Flirtie Walk.
