    Visit Date: February 20, 2021…read more So I had two adventures in one day, one by myself hiking here and one taking my son to bridgehampton later in the afternoon. I didn't park on Fort Salonga Road to get in, google maps always takes me a different way so I entered the trail from Makamah Road. The hike I took was a little over a 2 mile loop and I did it in snow because I will hike in snow even though it's a little rough. I had a great time looking at all the nature and actually taking time to think about stuff in life and realize what I want, what I don't want, what's in my life that could give me what I'm looking for, what I have to do to go get what I'm looking for. I might come back here with someone I'm currently flowing with if it still keeps up or again by myself or with my son when he's older and can handle a longer hike.

    This is a very nice place to go for a relaxing walk. After a short walk from the parking lot on…read moreRoute 25A, you come to the loop trail. To the right, or Eastern half, the trail has hills ans passes a creek and pond, and then leads to a tidal area of Long Island Sound. To the left, or Western half, the trail tend to be flatter and passes through woods until again coming to the Northern end of the park and the tidal area. If you walk quietly, you will see chipmunks and the occasional deer along the trail. Please be careful of all the poison ivy on the sides of the trail and growing up some of the trees.

    Purchased in 1885 by kings county asylum of Brooklyn, the property went on to become a self…read morecontained community of sorts offering mental help and care as well as a home to the patients that lived here. Being completely self sufficient, Kings County Asylum boasted its own Vegetable gardens and dairy at its height, it also supplied its own power through a small private electric plant on the premises. Eventually through modernization and improvements in medicine and health care the property eventually started to decommission buildings and no longer took on new patients. Completely closing around 1996 it eventually was turned over to the state becoming a park in 2000. I found Nissquogue river state park to be a very interesting park to visit, the north end of the park offers a nice walking trail as well as beautiful views of the Nissquogue river with over looking bluffs and a small beach front not for swimming. You will find a marina on the property offering boat slips as well as a boat launch if you choose to trailer your boat in for the day and many places to launch your kayak from and travel the river. Most of the property appears to still be in a developmental stage as far as parks go. Walking the property is an explorers delight allowing you to check out the decommissioned hospital buildings and infrastructure some of which dates back to the late 1800's and early 1900's.

    Beautiful state park. Free now but use your Empire pass or pay $8 or $10 per car during the summer…read more Was a mental hospital for veterans in its early years. The abandoned buildings and sad history may turn off some. It's not as popular as other nearby parks probably because of its history but the wraparound water views and green make this place a gem. Bathrooms open daily until sunset. Clean and well maintained. On a Spring rain day, I dined Al fresco with a friend and enjoyed being outdoors under cover.
