Historic postcard showing Rockwood Hall, house of William Rockefeller, in North Tarrytown, New York.

Join Rockwood docent David Teich on an adventure into the past as he explores 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. Leashed dogs are welcome.

Please bring water to drink and wear comfortable closed-toed shoes; the hike is about 2 miles roundtrip.

This hike is at Rockwood Hall, DO NOT go to the main Preserve entrance. The parking lot is on Kendal Way off 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 across the street from the parking lot.
