With nearly 30,000 acres of public parkland, New York City is the perfect place for fall leaf-peeping. Let our Urban Park Ranger naturalists explain why leaves change colors and introduce you to the diversity of trees found in our urban forests.
Our Urban Park Rangers will be your guides to the solar system, discussing the science, history, and folklore of the universe. The Taurid Meteor Shower produces 5-10 meteors per hour. In between, we will use telescopes to explore the night sky.
NYC Parks presents the first-ever Fall Field Day, at Highbridge Park in Manhattan. Kids, teens, and their families are invited to relive classic and nostalgic field day activities as they are re-introduced to a new generation. With an array of activities fit for all ages and abilities, Fall Field Day will have something for everyone to enjoy!
