Central Park Woodland Walk: Bridge and Pond
Engage your senses, calm your mind, and immerse yourself in the Park’s greenery
Come to see the bridge from Home Alone 2, stay to explore Central Park’s “secret garden.” Just steps away from bustling Fifth Avenue, the Hallett Nature Sanctuary was closed to the public for nearly a century and remained untouched for nearly 70 years. Following a full restoration by the Central Park Conservancy, visitors can enjoy the Sanctuary and discover its many native plants and wildlife. Let our expert guides lead you through this magical part of the Park’s south end, including the Hallett, Gapstow Bridge, and the beloved Pond that unites them.
