    This part of Staten Island has been well preserved. Many years ago when I took a pottery class you used to be able to come and dig up natural clay. Now it is more of a preserve to observe.

    In my view best time to visit is winter and early spring due to swampy terrain in some places (bugs would be an issue). Great variety of trails and visitor center open all winter. Clay pit pond trail CPP is my favorite one (lots of pines).
  • By Bradley Popkin
    Nice, easy walking trails right in your backyard. They are super quiet and peaceful. Multiple connecting trails and ones that are round. All of the trails are superbly marked.
