Parks and Nature Preserves in Patterson

- Parks and Preserves -

Patterson is home to many Town, County, and State owned parks and nature preserves. In addition, there are several preserves owned and maintained by the non-profit Putnam County Land Trust, and areas of special interest such as The Great Swamp. Together they provide an opportunity to enjoy nature's beauty throughout the four seasons. Open space is the key element in defining the semi-rural charm and scenic beauty of Patterson.

While the parks provide many of the traditional forms of recreation, such as swimming and softball, the preserves provide opportunities for many types of passive recreation such as hiking and birdwatching.
