Teatown Lake Reservation
Teatown Lake Reservation in Ossining offers 1,000 acres and 15 miles of trail around a glacial lake, a prime birding spot with marsh boardwalks.
Teatown Lake Reservation protects 1,000 acres and 15 miles of trail in Ossining, built around a small glacial lake that draws serious birders during spring and fall migration. The marsh boardwalks put you close to warblers and waterfowl without binoculars, letting you observe birds and marsh life in detail.
Wildflower Island, reachable by a seasonal footbridge, holds native plantings you won't find on the main trail system, and the reservation runs guided tours through the growing season.
The reservation is mid-renovation: a $26 million campus transformation is replacing the old nature center with a new 22,000-square-foot complex that includes a 5,400-square-foot Education Center with a green roof.
