West Hill County Park consists of three (two, really) sections: WHCP-West and WHCP-East separated by Sweet Hollow road. Both West and East sections have their parking lots. West parking is located off Highhold Dr. (40.813286, -73.437325), and this is a parking lot and official entrance as believed by google map. The East Parking is located at (40.801256, -73.421759) off Sweet Hollow road. Google map shows this as a turn to gravel road (Ridge dr). There is a large parking lot there, restrooms, several picnic areas, and a dog park. There are trails connecting East and west sections. To the South of West Hill County Park, separated by the Northern Parkway, there is West Hills Nature preserve. The only access to this area I am aware of is a small roadside parking (3-4 cars) at 40.795993, -73.421430 near the West Hill Preserve trailhead. We hiked both section. This East section is where Jaynes hill is – the highest point on Long Island. There are multiple trail some for people, some shared with horses, so watch where you are stepping :) Trails are well marked and maintained. We did not follow a specific trail but walked along a long loop along the edges of the park . The entire trip was just under 4 miles, given our wandering here and there. You can shorten it as there are many parallel trails that allow to cut this loop. If you add the Western section you can easily create a 7-9 mile "loop". The Western Section was disappointing. large section of WHCP-West is occupied by the youth camping ground that is apparently used by the scouts. It is fairly beaten down, with a bunch of wooden shelters and countless signs of intense human activity. This part is neither beautiful nor interesting. The return trail goes along Northern State parkway, which is noisy and messy. The only interesting part of the trail is the northern section from the end of the Mt.Misery Road to an abandoned parking lot at Gwynnne Road with crossing to the WHCP-East

Nice clean walking trails. Easy to follow. Great location. Some areas were muddy, waterproof hiking shoes recommended.

Interesting place. I parked where the dog park is and there was a horse barn next to it. I had no idea where to find the trail heads. I used my Google maps to help get around everywhere. The trails were mostly good. There were some wet and muddy spots but overall decent footing. Some spots had bad footing. I would say it's a good walking trail and I was running it. I wish they did different colored loops around the trails. There were a lot of ways to go and I had to keep stopping to make sure I wasn't going to get lost. If I could just follow a loop that would have been easier.

What a wonderful park, full of life even in winter. Plenty of views and trails are in great shape. Many other hikers and dog walkers out and about even on cold days.

This place is awesome! I'm from out of town and was looking for a good place to excercise my standard poodle. The people were very nice and the other dogs were very well behaved. We went during the week in the morning, there were about a dozen or so other dogs. There is a charge during the weekends and holidays at peak season memorial day to labor day. But not during the week day. There is a water fountain, and a small wooded area. I have to say I'm very impressed.

Very peaceful. Feels like upstate ny or pa

My dog absolutely loves this park the people are nice. And the dogs are also nice as well. But dogs are like humans not everybody gets along. I do as I keep my non delicious just to make sure when I get inside the gate. Is everything okay I release her. They also have fountain water.

I had a good time here! Nice and easy hiking trails. If your a local or about an hour away I would suggest checking this place out. Lots of horses and a nice open picnic area and dog park. Friendly people too.

Nice hike. We did get to the "summit." It appeared at one point there might have been some information, but nothing there, would have liked to have gotten more info. Note to others, there was little brush, given the season, and I got a tick bite (first time, on the knee and I was wearing long pants), so once the trees and brush are full, definitely be sure to don spray and thoroughly check yourself before heading home, especially if you opt to wear shorts. Check your pets as well.

I like the park. The people are friendly and there are plenty of cool dogs there for my 2 German Shepards to socialize with.

Great dog park and hiking trails. Watch out for the horse deposits as some of the trails are used for riding. There is a bathroom at the other end of the parking lot from the dog park.

No bugs, dog friendly, had the whole trail to ourselves. What more could one ask for?

Met up with my work team for a social distancing gathering. It was a nice place with plenty of room and picnic tables. Removed from the highway noises and well kept. A short distance from 110 and Walt Whitman mall.. There is also a horse training center along the same road. There is a public bathroom and dog park. I would recommend this park.

Plenty of parking, well maintained trails.

Bring your doggie to the park to meet other doggies. There’s donated pickup bags in case you forget to bring one. There’s also a water spigot.

Beautiful dog park here! A lot of dogs and their owners. Not much of a park for children though.

Was visiting a boy scout troop I was in Yeats ago for their holiday dinner and boy did seeing this place bring back great memories. Between hikes, campfires, manhunt, football, Frisbee, and plenty of other fun and sometimes unsafe activities but it all came right back when we went for a nice walk around. If only I could be a kid again or better yet forever.

Nice quiet clean place to walk. We want to come back when it's green!

Nice park close to Long Island expressway. Multiple trails to explore depending on how long you want your hike to be. Be careful as few trails are shared with the horse riding academy which is on the entrance to the park. Has a picnic area with restrooms, tables ,barbecue stations to grill your own food and a children’s play area and dog run.

A really nice clean park with a beautiful loop trail. Also a huuuuge dog park for the dogs to really run and stretch their legs!
