Westmoreland Sanctuary

Westmoreland Sanctuary Nonprofit nature center in Westchester, NY | Conserving land for education & enjoyment! A reconstructed 200 year-old building now serves as a nature museum.

This former Presbyterian Church in Bedford Village, NY was dismantled and rebuilt at the Chestnut Ridge Road entrance in 1973. The central room is used as an auditorium for public programs, and its periphery and the second-story balcony contain exhibits of regional flora and fauna. A bird observation window is located on the second floor where visitors can view our bird feeding station at various

times of the year. The nature museum is also home to our live animal collection, which includes insects, reptiles, amphibians, doves, and rabbits. The nature museum is open 9-5, 7 days a week. Adjacent to both sides of the nature museum is the Easy Loop trailhead, which is the beginning of our 7.5-mile trail system. Our many trails lead visitors past rocky cliffs, streams, ponds, and wetlands contained within our boundaries. Visitors are asked to remain on the trails at all times to preserve the integrity of the surrounding habitats and ecosystems. Dog walking, biking, skiing, and motorized vehicles are not permitted. Trails are open dawn to dusk year round. Trail maps are available in the kiosk in the parking lot.
