Located just 10 miles north of White Plains and 30 miles north of NYC, Rockefeller State Park Preserve features 45 miles of historic carriage roads. Traversing through woodlands, meadows & fields, the scenic roads are wide and easy to walk. The roads are also open to horseback riders and visitors to the park can enjoy snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and sledding.

The preserve’s combinations of trails lead through varied landscapes and past natural and historical features, such as Swan Lake, the Pocantico River. Trail maps of the carriage roads are available at the Preserve Office or may be downloaded from the NYS Park’s website (above).
Open year-round from sunrise to sunset, leashed dogs are welcome, but bicycles, mechanized vehicles, drones, metal detectors, snowmobiling, camping, and open fires are strictly prohibited.
