I had a wonderful time out here. Peaceful, relaxing, quiet, easy walk. Only two trees fell on the West side of the park near the tree gym. Just go around it and have fun. I was looking for the 350 year old tree and pond, but the summer bloom was to thick to see. Maybe next time. Peace!

A nature experience in NYC. I love the trails, trees, perennials and vegetation. In Spring, the park awakens and comes alive!! After Central Park, it's the best in the City. 11 z.

The second largest park in Queens. The LIE, Grand central Parkway and Cross-island Parkway run through the park. Beautiful and great place for nature walk in the woods or engaging in various activities in the more open areas. The park also offers educational programs. A great escape to nature from busy city life without having to travel far.

Was here on March 19 2022 to do some vinecutting. Walked from Northern Boulevard down the yellow trail. NYC's Natural Areas Conservancy is putting a lot of effort into this park. The size of it is very impressive.

There is no zoo permanently located there, but there is a petting zoo there for special occasions, Easter egg hunt for example. If you want to go to a petting zoo or to see farm animals you can go to Queens farm museum which is not very far away.
