While Central Park is the most well-known of green spaces in New York City it is merely number five of the top 10 largest parks in the city.
For people who love nature, New York City may not appear to be the oasis for wildlife that it genuinely is. There is sufficient to do in New York City that will enhance your appreciation of nature and/or allow you opportunities to educate yourself about nature or simply be out and about enjoying it.
New York is home to some 1,700 parks and playgrounds where you are able to enjoy pursuits like bike riding, inline skating, ice skating (seasonally), row boating, basketball, skate boarding, softball, soccer, tennis, Frisbee, or even a rousing game of tag with the little one that lights your eyes. Be certain to bring a blanket so that you are able to lie on your back and watch the clouds roll by. While you’re at it, see if there is a stray bird or two that you are able to identify.
For those who love nature there are loads of places to get close to it in New York City. For people who are interested in bird watching New York Botanical Garden offers guided tours. Blue Heron Park is the one other great place to watch birds. Some of the varieties you’ll see her include: Woodpeckers and Warblers.

For those who prefer nature activities that need some more action than bird watching (well now and again), there are heaps of excellent opportunities to go fishing around about New York City. Central Park’s Charles A. Dana Discovery Center is a great place to go ‘catch and release’ fishing. They’ll even lend you a pole. You can likewise go fishing in Willowbrook Park. While you’re there be sure to let the little ones ride the Carousel, it will earn you a great sum of smiles for the small price ( in the present world) of $1. Other activities available at Willowbrook park include: archery, ice-skating, an archery range, football, soccer, horseshoes, tennis, and horseshoes.

The Brooklyn Botanic Garden offers another opportunity for enthusiasts to take pleasure from the finest in greenery that New York has to offer. This garden even has a special club designed to help younger kids release their inner green thumbs. Be sure to test it out.
Another area of Central Park that bears mentioning is Belvedere Castle and the turtle pond that runs underneath it. Belvedere castles is a good place for bird watching and the other wildlife surrounding it only magnifies its appeal.

You must provide ID and children under the age of 6 cannot borrow.
