A Guided Walk in Central Park: 

"A Walk in the Woodlands"
Saturday, October 11th, 11:00am-12:30pm

Central Park's designer Frederick Law Olmsted said, "It is the one great Purpose of the Park to supply to tired workers a specimen of God's handiwork that shall be to them, inexpensively, what a month of the Adirondacks is, at great cost, to those in easier circumstances." We'll explore the North Woods, Central Park's largest woodlands, and see how its rolling hills, dramatic rock outcroppings, gentle stream, and three waterfalls magically transport you from the city. Along the way, we'll also skirt the Harlem Meer and the newly opened Davis Center/Gottesman Pool. 

Explore the North Woods with Landmark West!, FRIENDS of the Upper East Side, and former Central Park Conservancy guide Catherine Fredman.  Catherine has spent years sharing the history of Central Park and still finds new things to discover. She wowed the LANDMARK WEST! walking tour group with a spring evening in the Ramble, and most recently, a promenade through "the heart of the Park."

Please note that this will be an active walk, and may involve stairs.

Come spend a beautiful morning in the North Woods!
