Hiking area
ππ A great way to spend a few hours walking amidst nature yet not have to worry about tripping - 6.3 miles βthere and backβ from the parking lot at Mansfield Park over to Massapequa Lake and back. Hardly any elevation - great for a long stroll with the creek giving you company for most of it.

Itβs a pleasant place fo...

Rev. Arthur Mackey Sr. Park
Park
π Seems like a pretty good little park. There is a nice pond with lots of ducks and geese. There are benches along the path, not very good for anything but walking though. It looks like i missed the northern half of the park that has more of a trail, I'll have to go back and check out that part.

Tackapausha Museum and Preserve
Museum of zoology
ππ Quiet and quaint, super affordable and just the right amount of time to keep a little one busy, not overwhelm them! The day we visited the staff was so helpful and friendly and took animals out for us to (gently) pet. This is not a zoo so dont expect large animals but there are plenty of amphibians...
