Valley Stream State Park
Valley Stream, NY · 🚂 ~1.1 mi from Westwood LIRR
One of Long Island's original 1920s state parks, a 97-acre green wedge hiding in plain sight off the Southern State. Shaded woodland trails, big lawns and picnic groves that feel a world away from Sunrise Highway traffic.
LOCAL TIP
Open 7am to sunset year-round; the $8 car fee only runs in season and the Empire Pass covers it.
