| Various | Immerse in the beauty of nature in NYC's third largest park! Journey through three ecologically distinct forests on a 2-mile trail at the northern end of the park and past freshwater wetlands and a lake area perfect for birding in the heart of the park. Get a glimpse of history as you discover remnants of the Old Croton Aqueduct and visit the Grand Central Stones. Be sure to head out on the Putnam Trail, a paved pathway that travels from the southern to the northern end of the park and connects to the South County Trailway, so you can extend your hike into Westchester!
