This stunning preserve along the Hudson River—a local favorite since 1999—just got even better. With the addition of a 12-acre section along the Hudson River, this natural gem now spans a whopping 142 acres of breathtaking views, rolling meadows, water access, and exciting new features.

What’s new and improved?
✨An expanded parking lot with easy access to the trail head

 ✨A new trailhead kiosk to guide your adventure (this is the first designated segment in the John Burroughs Black Creek Trail!)  

✨A spacious 20×20-foot riverfront pavilion to take in the views

 ✨A restored 1840s gazebo perfect for relaxation and photos

✨ Bilingual informational signs throughout the park, making this experience accessible —and serving as a model for over 45 other parks!

Whether you’re strolling along the new trails or soaking in the stunning river views, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
