Hallock State Park Preserve offers a total of 225 acres. Hallock State Park Preserve is a shorefront park preserve that offers nearly one mile of pristine beachfront on the North Shore of Long Island along the Long Island Sound.
Hiking, nature walks, and bird watching are available. Development of the remainder of the preserve is in the planning stages and may include formal trails, environmental education, and activities appropriate for a park preserve.

Beach Monitoring and Clean-Up Walk
Saturday, February 4, 2023 10:00 AM
Hallock State Park Preserve
Start your Saturday morning with a walk at Hallock State
Park Preserve's Long Island Sound beach while you support marine conservation
and learn about local sea life.
Scientists and volunteers from the Atlantic Marine
Conservation Society lead our weekly beach walk.
Along the way, we pick
up marine debris and discuss current local issues of marine biology.
Along the way, you will learn how to collect relevant data
and how to support marine conservation on your own.
Participants of all ages are welcome.
We meet at the Visitor Center, just off Sound Avenue, and
then drive to the upper parking lot for a walk of about 1.5 miles.
We provide trash pickers and buckets. Please bring you own
gloves.
Pre-registration is not necessary but suggested so that we
may notify you if an event is cancelled due to severe weather.

The Great Backyard Bird Count Walk
Saturday, February 18, 2023 09:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Hallock State Park Preserve
( 3 mile walk) The Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National
Audubon Society encourages people to count birds to tally wintering bird
populations. Scientists use this data to help understand where populations of
birds are in winter, declines, increases etc. It is a very successful (and fun)
citizen science project so all birds observed will be entered into databases.
