Pro Tip
Follow the lesser-used side trails for more secluded pond views and undisturbed wildlife encounters.
Situated on the western bank of the Nissequogue River, near its estuarine mouth, this 93-acre forested property is utilized primarily for hiking. Arthur Kunz County Park features tidal creeks, a lush, mixed deciduous forest, rolling hills and valleys, and quaint hidden ponds all of which provide important habitat for wildlife. The trail system in the park provides a scenic link in a section of the Long Island Greenbelt Trail which heads north from Arthur Kunz Park to its terminus at Sunken Meadow State Park.
