Croton Falls Dam

Marvellous, beautiful and gorgeous, but it's not open to the public there is no parking and if you go see it - You'll be trespassing.

You can't get a good view. The dam itself is strictly inaccessible by the order of the state. So there isn't anything you can see or do there.

Beautiful place. Nice for a quiet walk. Unfortunately the dam itself it off-limits to walk on. I don't know why that is, since it's the only DEP dam in Westchester/the entire NYC water system that is off limits. It may seem easy enough to just walk on, as the gate is just to block cars and it is open on both sides, but beware, because the DEP regularly patrol this area and will be more than happy to write you an ECL trespass ticket for walking on it- they write several every day and don't let anyone off the hook. It's still a nice place though. Great in the evenings, great sunsets. Just remember not to go on the dam itself unless you want a $200+ fine and a potential criminal charge!
