The Croton
Gorge Park
Plan a fun filled day at the Croton Gorge Park. This 97-acres facility offers open
lawn areas for picnicking, hiking through the woods, fishing in the Croton River, a
playground, and numerous nature trails. Noted as a historic site, the Croton Dam
(picture to the left) is the largest hewn-stone structure in America, 297 feet high, 2,168
feet long, with a capacity of 30 billion gallons. It holds the title of the second largest
hewn-stone structure in the world, the largest being Egypt's Great Pyramid. |
