Join us as we explore the park and its amenities. Around 3 PM, we'll leave the park and hopefully grab a bite to eat at a nearby Italian Restaurant (optional ).
The park, rich in natural and human history, is the site of the Croton Point Nature Center.
The oldest oyster shell middens on the North Atlantic Coast uncovered by archeologists on Croton Point confirm that the peninsula was inhabited by Native Americans as early as 7,000 years ago. Croton is in fact named for the Indian sachem, Kenoten, which means "wild wind.” In the 17th century, Indians of the Kitchawank tribe on the Wappinger Confederacy occupied a large fortified village on the high flat at the neck of Croton Point, which they called Navish. This was one of the most ancient and formidable Indian fortresses south of the Hudson Highlands.
