Located within the most populated metropolitan area in the United States — just four miles from our largest city, Manhattan — there lies a haven. It is being restored to benefit wildlife — native plants and animals — and also to benefit people by providing easy access to the wonders of Nature. Where? The Meadowlands. This guide will take you there and to many other wildlife-viewing sites in the Hackensack River watershed. Please, come and see.
We have created three driving tours in the region. Click on the trail names below to open a detailed map for each tour. The wildlife-viewing destinations on the tours are marked with numbers in a circle. When you click on a circled number, or on the list of destinations below each map, you will open a page containing detailed directions and site information for that destination. Detailed directions on the tour pages will guide you from one site to the next (not from a central location or a nearby road).
