History of Rockwood Hall

Walk the grounds of William Rockefeller’s historic Rockwood Hall foundation with David Teich.
Join our Historian David Teich on an adventure into the past as we explore Rockwood Hall and its rich history through stories of the land and the people who called it home.
Former estate of William Rockefeller, this site boasts scenic views overlooking the Hudson, lush forests, and remnants of 19th century luxuries.
The Rockwood Hall parking lot is on Kendal Way at the west end of route 117, just after the intersection of Phelps and Regeneron. If the lot is full, you may park in the Phelps garage (free). Gather at the kiosk at the top of the hill.
Leashed dogs are welcome. Bring water to drink and wear comfortable shoes; expect to walk at least 2 miles.
