“An Introduction to Tivoli Lake Preserve and Farm”

Join us for a guided walk in the Preserve to learn about the project and space.

We will explore this “hidden gem” in Albany which is the second largest urban preserve in NYS. Walk will be approximately 1.5 miles with 2 steep (but short) sections.

We will meet at Tivoli Lake Preserve, Livingston Ave & Judson Street, Albany, NY 12206. Please use the use the Judson parking lot.

From mid-July-September/October, vis­i­tors may see the sheep grazing behind fences along the Brother Yusuf Memorial Trail – but be sure not to pet or feed them, they need their space to work! Please note that our animals are working animals and we are not a petting zoo.
