Great Swamp Conservancy
The Great Swamp's Conservancy's purpose is to foster environmental education
The Great Swamp’s Conservancy’s purpose is to foster environmental education while preserving the area's biological diversity and conserving and managing the natural resources in the Oneida Lake and Lake Ontario Watersheds.
Miles of trails and a 900-ft. boardwalk through a flooded wood provide unequaled opportunities for nature study. A great spot to fish, bike, hike, run, bird-watch, snowshoe, cross-country ski and more. A special feature of this nature center is its osprey nesting platform.
In addition to children’s educational programs, The Great Swamp Conservancy holds numerous events open to the public, showcasing nature in all four seasons, including the annual Spring and Fall migration festivals, where artisans and vendors from around Central New York come to showcase their wares and celebrate the arrival and departure of our migrant feathered friends.
