Geocache Description:

Doherty Park is a 65-acre scenic park that was transformed from an old gravel mine. Walking the mile-long well marked nature trail will bring you through a range of different ecosystems including old fields, ecotones, new forests, streams and ponds.


This cache is placed at the entrance to Doherty Park.  The park is open from dawn to dusk.  Please note that even if the gates are closed, you are still allowed to enter and use the park.  There is enough parking outside of the gates for three or four cars.  Although there is no signage, it would be wise to not entirely block the gates if at all possible.

Should you choose to find the other caches in the park, there is a mile long blue blazed nature trail loop just on the outskirts of the soccer fields. The trail loop starts/ends right near the entrance to the park (kiosk is on the left). Parking is available between the entrance and exit roads. We hope you enjoy the hike!

Dogs are allowed on the trail if they are kept on a leash and if you clean up after them.

This cache has been placed with permission of the Town of Beekman Recreation Director.
