Nature Trail

Easy walk with beautiful water view, you will walk in the wood then a little boardwalk to Sandy Beach and then back. Just enough to clean your head.

This is a fairly short trail besides the museum. There are a few small steps along the way that were worn out/ well used, so be careful not to slip. The nature walk was a bit humid, but sufficiently blocked out all the sun. The well constructed bridge crosses a swamp and connects to the sandy beach

Conquered my fear of hiking down wild trails. Will forever remember this place 🫶🏽 Perfect first (short) hike to get to the lake. Colors are absolutely stunning during fall 🍂

I definitely enjoyed my time here. I thought it would be a longer hike than it was. It was steeper than I was prepared for. Definitely not handicap friendly but I just took my time and sat on the ground or a log when needed. Worth it and absolutely beautiful.

A wonderful trail leading down to Cold Spring Harbor with a a good stretch of shoreline that is a protected bird sanctuary and a great place to capture photos or rest and relax. The trail is a loop trail that is downhill to the new boardwalk and there it leads to the Family beach of Theodore Roosevelt. If you want to avoid a very long and very steep section of the trail on your hike out, near the beginning of the trail of the way down the trail splits here you”ll see a Trail sign where you can decide for yourself. There are 4 benches along the trail up along the much less steep section. I captured some excellent bird photos by resting my camera on the top railing of the boardwalk .
