Greenbrook Sanctuary

Greenbrook Sanctuary Greenbrook is a nonprofit, member dues and donations supported nature preserve. https://www.greenbrooksanctuary.org/ on the right side.

Palisades Nature Association is a non-profit organization of conservation-minded people, founded in 1946 to preserve the natural character of the Palisades cliffs and to develop a wild sanctuary in the Greenbrook area. Today it administers Greenbrook Sanctuary to provide a place within the metropolitan area where interested persons can study nature and relax in a peaceful, undisturbed setting. To

foster an appreciation of the unique Palisades environment and history, and to spread its conservation message to all ages, the Association sponsors nature, geology, and ecology field trips in Greenbrook Sanctuary by a professional naturalist.

“Greenbrook Sanctuary is a membership necessary and sustained (visit https://www.njpalisades.org/greenbrook/ to join) secluded nature preserve, 165 acres of woodland on top of New Jersey’s magnificent Palisades. Google Green Brook Rd Tenafly NJ., 0.8 mile north of E Clinton and 9W intersection. 4.7 miles north of the George Washington Bridge, off U.S. Route 9W, the sanctuary is an oasis of solitude and natural beauty, minutes away from one of the noisiest, most densely populated areas in the world. In the wildest, most secluded acres, trees rise 100 to 130 feet and are often over 200 years old. Awed hikers feel hundreds of miles and years away from the cities in such primeval forests...”
