Wolfe's Pond Park, Public park in Staten Island, New York, United States.
Wolfe's Pond Park is a public space in Staten Island that combines salt marshes, woodlands, and open fields around a central pond. The site includes multiple trails, fishing areas, and picnic spots where visitors can spend time outdoors.
The site was designated as a protected public space in 1980 by the New York City Parks Department to preserve its ecological value. This protection helped safeguard the natural habitats from urban development.
The park hosts regular environmental education programs where school groups learn about native species and local ecology. These activities happen outdoors and show visitors how people actively care for the natural space.
The park has multiple entrances and is accessible by foot or car, with parking available at different locations. Before visiting, check which facilities are open since availability can vary by season.
The pond connects to Raritan Bay and creates an unusual mix of freshwater and saltwater conditions in the same location. This blend of different water types supports a special variety of life forms rarely found together.
