**/////////////////////////// SITE OVERVIEW**
Osa Trail campsite rests on a secluded hilltop bordering Sundown Wild Forest with SPECTACULAR VIEWS of hills and valleys. Campers can see all the way to The Berkshires on clear days. At night, it's the Milky Way, so bring your telescope. There is a beautiful "secret" mountain stream waterhole within a 7-minute walk from the tent, and countless hiking trails in nearby Minnewaska State Park, only 20 minutes away. Come savor the tranquility.
Right along the driveway leading to the campsite there is a shale outcrop, full of fossils, mostly prehistoric leaves and branches, but also occasional Brachiopods - yours for the taking. Bring your cold chisel and a mallet.
This campsite is equipped with one Queen-sized bed with a memory foam mattress! For the winter our floor is insulated with rubber mats to cut down on drafts.
Good cell reception at the campsite.
No poison ivy anywhere on the property.

May The Good Lord Bless and Love You All. Very serene, beautiful, and scenic. A great place to meditate, unwind and let your imagination run free.
One of the most serene spots in the city. Commune with nature in this peaceful, pretty setting with hiking trails, foot bridges and paved paths by small ponds, streams and a few waterfalls. Full of flora, birds, ducks, squirrels, chipmunks, turtles and a steady stream of nature enthusiasts. Wheelchair accessible.
It is a great place to walk through some woods. There are usually few people (can't speak for the weekend) and i found a variety of wildlife, especially chipmunks, squirrels and birds.
You can almost forget that you're in a big city while walking through these nice woods.
The North Woods provides a variety of wooded and plain landscapes.
There are constructions, such as the Blockhouse, a fortification from 1812 that is the oldest structure in the park.
North woods is a safe and wonderful place to walk and explore at any time of the year.
It is also a popular place for bird watching and other elements of nature.
A quiet and beautiful section of Central Park on the north western section. Not a lot of tourists compared to the southern section.
The woods are beautiful to walk through. There is pond with giant willows perfect for a little picnic. There are a couple of small waterfalls. This really does not feel you're even in the city. No need to take a drive all the way upstate for a walk. Of course this does not offer a strenuous workout like the mountain trails upstate, but it is still peaceful and very very friendly. And it is right here in the city.
