Hempstead Lake State Park


West Hempstead, NY 11552

Hempstead Lake State Park boasts three ponds in addition to its namesake lake. An historic hand carved carousel as well as boating and fishing are the park's main attractions.


SWIM: Yes there are lakes at this park but no you are not able to swim in them! THUMBS DOWN!

RUN: Trails - couple short roads 





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*FOREST + PEOPLE IN SHORTS + BUGS = ALOT OF MOSQUITO BITES! PLEASE BRING THE BUG SPARY! YOU WON'T BE IRRITATED ON YOUR RUN FROM THOSE PESKY BUGS!*

**TIP: TO PARK AT ANY STATE PARK IT WILL COST 8-10 DOLLARS, TO SAVE SOME MONEY I RECOMMEND BUYING THE EMPIRE PASSPORT ($65 A YEAR). AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT ANY STATE PARK - PARK OFFICE; ONLINE; OR THROUGH MAIL.**
