Question

【题目】 Long Island’s hiking routes offer an escape for family time or your own mental or physical health. There’s lots to see, so open your senses because it's a relaxing thing to do in a stressful time.

Sagamore Hill, Oyster Bay

Walk along the same path that President Theodore Roosevelt walked with his family and guests. Sagamore Hill, now a national park, was once the summer home of the 26th president. The expansive property has a nature path through thick woodlands where hikers can walk over a little bridge over a stream. It’s a short, three-quarter-mile path through oak and tulip trees.

INFO: Open sunrise to sunset daily year-round; free; 516-922-4788.

Blydenburgh County Park, Hauppauge

The east side of the park is flat, making the walk very kid-friendly. The west side is a bit more hilly, but both have splendid water views of the pond. On the east side is also the rowboat area and benches, as well as picnic tables.

When you’re at Blydenburgh County Park, go in the north entrance off Route 347, where the main office of the Greenbelt Trail Conference is situated. The office, also the start of the routes, provides information and maps.

INFO: Dawn to dusk; 631-854-3712. No fee collected from the main gate in the fall and winter.

Tackapausha Preserve, Seaford

The preserve has self-guided routes for the public and is a fun walk for kids with a stop at the museum to complete the visit. Guided walks at the museum are available with advance reservations for organizations and school groups. The paths are flat, well-maintained and clearly marked, with a pond with bridges and a waterfall along the way. It’s a great place to bring your family to bird watch, enjoy animals and connect with nature.
