Great Central Park Hike: Indigenous Central Park

Before the arrival of Europeans, the land that became Central Park was part of a rich indigenous ecosystem that the Lenape people still call home today. Join Conservancy guides for this trek through Central Park from 110th Street to 59th Street as they explore native flora and fauna and discover how native communities (including Lenape descendants) sustain and nourish their connections to their ancestral homeland.

Bring plenty of water and your own lunch for a mid-hike picnic. Might we suggest packing your meal and beverage in reusable containers? And don’t forget an enthusiastic mindset— it will be an adventure you won’t forget!
