Outside in Inwood

The last natural forest and the last salt marsh left in Manhattan are both here, along with glacial potholes in the rock and some of the largest tulip trees in the city. Trails climb the ridge from Seaman Avenue and the marsh is tidal and brackish, with crabs and waterfowl in it. The nature center on the water reopened in 2024 after twelve years shut following Hurricane Sandy.

Park open daily, 6am to 1am. Nature center weekends only, 10am to noon and 1pm to 3pm
